ATV Stereos - Getting the Right One for Your Needs

ATV stereos really add to the experience of your time on the trail. The number of stereos are growing every year. There are a couple of things to keep in mind when picking out the right unit.

One of the first things to consider when looking for a stereo is the durability of the unit. The day to day life of an ATV stereo is going to be a rough one. Therefore, you want to make sure that you buy a unit that is up to your demands.

One of the toughest things is the vibrations that your machine will be transferring into the stereo. Electronics are vulnerable to vibration and moisture. so make sure that the unit that you are looking at is going to be able to handle the elements.

The quality of the sound is also important. Consider if you are going to be listening to your system on a quiet trail ride and campsite, or if you are going to be using it to entertain a group of trail buddies.

If you are looking for personal music than you want to make sure that the unit is able to accept earphones or a helmet mic system. This will allow you to be able to enjoy distortion free music whenever wherever.

If on the other hand, you are going to be using the system to charge the party, than you'll have other needs. One of these needs will be the capacity and clarity of your speakers.

Speakers are one of the biggest components of your system. Most systems have acceptable power to run most speaker systems. The problem is that most speakers begin to degrade from the environment and physical abuse of riding. The cost of good ATV speakers might be surprising, but it is money well spent.

The head unit is the other important component of the system. The head unit is the most vulnerable component to weather and vibration. This needs to be protected from both. One way to protect the unit from vibration is to make sure that you mount it properly.

There are several ways and places to mount the stereo. When selecting a location consider protecting it from branches and various other shocks. Its mounting hardware should also insulate it from vibration and shocks. Most mounts incorporate rubber bushings that insulate it from slight vibrations, but any additional measures won't go to waste.

An ATV stereo is a great investment if you buy the right one for your needs and install it correctly.

Ever Considered Getting a Fully Robotic ATV to Carry Your Gear Far and Near?

One of the top US defense industry companies has come out with a new unmanned ground vehicle or UGV which holds 1200 pounds on its platform, and even a 50 caliber machine gun. When the troops are marching a long-distance they can put all their heavy gear on top of the vehicle and it will follow them. Basically it's a robotic ATV quad with a flat platform on top, and lots of hooks to carry the loads.

Now then, I am almost positive that soon these types of vehicles will be available for those people who use ATVs to go hunting, camping, or even researchers that go out into the wild to study animals, birds, or other species. It is an all-terrain vehicle they can go just about anywhere, and therefore it has many more applications than purely military.

Now obviously if you are going camping, you won't need the 50 caliber machine gun atop, but if you are going deer hunting, or if you're going to hunt elk or mouse, you're going to need a pretty big vehicle to bring back whatever it is you shoot. Best of all these new Army ATVs have long-range fuel tanks.

All you have to do is wear a certain device, and the ATV will follow you and avoids obstacles along the way. You don't have to steer it, it has sensors which seek out rocks, debris, blogs, and it can climb up hills, go through creeks, or just about anything you ask it to do.

It will follow you and take all your gear with you. That means you can do a 50 mile hike into the wilderness, with all your gear and never have to worry about it. Best of all it can go places that you could never get a 4-wheel drive truck. Please consider all this.
