ROCKFORD’S COMING HOME!!!!!

BREAKING NEWS! The world’s most well known and famous brand of high end American car audio – Rockford-Fosgate – is returning to the UK and is to be distributed and looked after by the same people who used to do it many years back…called Path.
I just couldn’t help reporting, as it IS public domain stuff now – at least on an American website, but the UK outfit is to be called Path Products and they will be having other lines and a full offering as well as the Rockford kit but I have been sworn to at least some semblance of secrecy.
However, the cat is clawing its way out of the bag and I wanna tell you! The UK’s Rockford fans have frankly had issues with handling of the product in recent years, without seeing it sold in the usual types of dealers and those installers still buying it finding it hard to get service for those nutters that will always blow up tweeters. Even having to go buy stuff direct from the USA at retail to service their customers.
One such installer, who wished to remain anonymous, said, upon hearing the news, “I love Rockford-Fosgate and look forward to seeing it back to the original UK distributors, whatever the corporate identity is. Rockford’s coming home!”
This is the one brand that you get folks actually marking themselves for life with… Here’s a bloke called Neil Kelly with his Rockford tattoo on Wareham beach as I write today – Thanks to BlackBerry

We’ll let you know more when we do.
