When it comes to enhancing your off-road experience, quality audio can transform every ride into an adventure. Recently, our team at Next Level completed a premium custom audio installation on a Kawasaki KRX 1000, featuring top-of-the-line components from JL Marine Audio, now part of the Garmin Marine family.
The Challenge
The Kawasaki KRX 1000 is a beast on the trails, but like many side-by-sides, it doesn’t come with the audio setup that serious riders demand. Our client wanted crystal-clear sound that could cut through engine noise, wind, and rough terrain—without compromising the vehicle’s rugged capabilities.
The Solution: JL Marine Audio by Garmin
We chose JL Marine Audio components (now under the Garmin Marine brand) for several key reasons:
- Weather Resistance: Marine-grade components are built to withstand moisture, dust, and extreme conditions—perfect for off-road environments
- Superior Sound Quality: JL Audio’s reputation for exceptional audio performance ensures every note comes through clearly
- Durability: These systems are engineered for the harshest conditions, making them ideal for the demanding world of off-road riding
The Installation
Our custom installation included:
- Premium Marine Speakers: Strategically positioned for optimal sound distribution throughout the cabin
- Amplification: Powerful amplification to ensure clear audio even at high speeds and over rough terrain
- Weather-Sealed Wiring: Professional-grade connections that protect against the elements
- Clean Integration: Seamless mounting that maintains the KRX’s aggressive aesthetic while delivering premium sound
- Custom Enclosures: Our techs are experience in fabricating custom enclosures for not only the speakers and subwoofers, but also the amplifiers. Then, wrap them in weather-resistant material to handle the elements.
The Result
The finished installation delivers concert-quality audio that enhances every ride. Whether you’re cruising trails with friends or pushing the limits on challenging terrain, you’ll enjoy:
- Clear, powerful sound at any speed
- Reliable performance in all weather conditions
- A professional, factory-quality appearance
- Enhanced resale value for your machine

This Stingray boat was brought in to us to have new speakers and head unit, Seadek surface installed, and a professional detail. To install Seadek Non-Skid surface, we have to scan the entire boat with a special machine that is here at our shop. Then we go to the computer that puts the measurements into the software to have another machine custom CNC cut the surface padding to the dimensions previously measured. The Stingray text is also CNC’d along with the customers desired pattern. The boat was professionally detailed from head to toe, including all of the salt water barnicles on the boat. Once the cleaning was done, we carefully install the padding surface like a puzzle.
Once Seadek, the Kicker KMC10, and 6 new Kicker speakers were installed, we had a the detailer clean and buff the boat one more time to bring color back and remove scuffs for the customer.

Airboats are fun! We have some boats ourselves that we have installed custom Seadek Non-Skid, waterproof speakers from Kicker, and Ocean LED lights just like on this customers boat. The customer already had Seadek installed, but has asked us to install a screaming stereo so they can hear the music from across the state.
Kicker speakers and amp were installed in a matter of a couple of hours with custom mounting brackets. Music can now be controlled from a remote or a smart phone.
We installed Kicker marine speakers on this customers SeaRay Sundeck boat.
At Next Level Inc. we give a lifetime warranty on all labor when products are purchased through the shop.
Come drop your boat off for the day and we can have our expert installers give your boat or yacht the stereo it deserves. We also carry OceanLED for underwater marine lights that are easily installed here at the shop.
