Developed with the serious competitor in mind, Audio Profiles has improved on the common black-and-white schematic used by most enthusiasts during competition by creating customized diagrams in full color. This way of diagramming takes full advantage of state-of-the-art computer technology, combining realistic illustrations of common audio components into a complete graphical presentation. "This product is definitely geared to the competitor" said Lyle Engleson,owner and president of Audio Profiles. "There's no comparison to ink drawn diagrams, and competitors are sure to win high points for presentation and creativity." Engleson, who debuted the company's product line at the 1996 IASCA Finals in Greenville received tremendous response from competitors and judges alike. "The most visually stunning and most informative system diagram and power flow chart on the circuit" says Femme Adagoke with Image Dynamics. Competitors can choose from four different packages of signal flow and power flow diagrams. Each package is geared to each level of competition-Novice, Amateur, Pro and Expert. The Novice Diagrams the standard package, and consists of one 8 1/2 x 11 inch print or an 8x10 inch transparency of a complete system, including the head unit, CD Changer, equalizer, signal processor, amps, speakers, and speaker wire, as well as a choice of background color.

The Amateur Diagram provides a similar schematic but is slightly more custom, adding model numbers and brand logos of the audio equipment used by the competitor. The Pro Diagram builds further on the previous two. providing an overall package. System diagrams are given a personal touch with he option of adding colors to match a competitors vehicle interior. The Pro also includes a power chart incorporated into the diagram to create the ultimate custom look. "What makes the Pro so economical is the addition of a duplicate print or transparency," added Engleson, "It's perfect for the competitor who has a system diagram display in the back of his or her vehicle." But for the seriously serious, "Engleson recommends the Expert Diagram. "This diagram may well be the most thought out component in your car." he said. The expert Diagram contains everything included in the other three packages but provides many additional feature. Since most competitors in this class are sponsored by a company or manufacturer, Audio Profiles incorporates the company's corresponding logo into the overall design. In addition, a front page is designed for the competitors book, which includes a photograph of your choice, competitors name, audio association names and or logos, and of course the sponsors logo(s).

Packages take approximately four to six weeks to complete, and additional custom features and special requests are available at an additional cost. Although these packages are geared toward the individual competitors, Engleson believes system diagrams can also be useful to manufactures. "We also create custom displays of any shape and size for companies to use in brochures trade shows and competitions," he said.
