In the car audio world. Companies, and brands pop up in the blink of a eye. Some have been around for 10 plus years. While others are just beginning to get on their feet.
And, a brand we would like to share some light on is
F.U. Audio. Of course when you think of
F.U Audio. Some automatically think of
"F--k You Audio" off the top of your head. And, think why would someone name their company that.
That's not the case with
F.U. Audio. In short F.U. Audio stands for "
For Us Audiophiles" which is catchy when you read the backstory of how this company came to be.
In their company bio they state "For Us. A Car Audio brand developed by a group of audiophiles who have engineered, built, sold, marketed and installed for most of our lives for other companies. When we say "For Us" we mean For Us Audiophiles: Everyone that has been in our shoes, is in our shoes or will be in our shoes."
With better understand of the company, and what it stands for. The question many have to ask. Is what is the mission of this company? Do like some companies that come into the car audio industry with good intentions of creating a quality product at reasonable prices. Or, just another company promising to be the savior, but become too expensive to affordable for the average consumer, and product quality becomes sub par.
Again, the founders of the company have the answer for inquiring minds. Saying "We
have watched as many companies sell-out, stray away from their core
principals, go cheap, degrade next years designs, run to China and more.
Be assured with our 20 plus years invested in this industry and the built
up frustrations of watching companies switching things up on their
competitors and consumers in order stuff their wallets with more cash,
we have absolutely no plans to travel down this path. We are the FUture of sound ,and we will lead by example."
Words that give the true meaning to what this company stands for as a strong foundation. This is not just a company of big wigs with money to gain from lovers of car audio. But, lovers of it themselves. People who have purchased products, and seen the productivity of greed as prices on products go up while the quality goes down. And, with the goals of creating better products for the people who share the same passion as them.
As of now F.U. Audio is just starting off with little to offer in products. But, they do have the intentions to spread into all aspect of car audio in manufacturing subwoofers, and amplifiers. Along with re-cone kits, and re-sizing kits. Which is all handmade, assembled, and tested by them in the great USA.
What is available at this time is their
FU750 series woofers. A re-define of quality and performance expectations of a 2.5" coil subwoofer. With
the ability to handle 750 RMS and a motor pulling force of 55.8
pounds it is guaranteed to exceed expectations. The FU750 is their entry
level woofer and yet they still choose to use the best Y35 ferrite
material for their motor, rather than the cheaper route. With minimal
customization that can be done to the FU750, this will allow anyone that
hears one know their starting point and exactly the performance they can
get from "stock" FU products.
The FU750 series from F.U. Audio comes in an arrangement of dual 2 ohm, and dual 4 ohm voice coil. In the sizes of 12 inches, 15 inches, and 18 inches. With price ranging of $199.99 for their 12 inch model, $219.99 for their 15 inch model, and $245.99 for their 18 inch model. With a 3 week waiting period. Since each subwoofer is built to order when ordered. Which takes 1-2 weeks depending on orders ahead, and 5 to 7 days on shipping.
