Entertainment on wheels about two decades ago, as far as I can see, was nothing like it is now. Blasting away about five scores of your favourite numbers was a far cry with a typical 90 min tape chugging on your cassette player and offering you about 12 songs at the most. And that’s not all that has changed. With the advent of CD players into the world of entertainment systems, a new rush of digitally empowered crystal clear music has swept in, leaving listeners gasping for more. So, when rear seat entertainment systems made their foray into the automotive industry, naturally a big hullaballoo was in order, which was ceremoniously maximised by elated users of these next-generation devices. Now car audio video systems that offer unfettered entertainment for rear seat occupants are the taste of the patronisers of infotainment on wheels, and Sound and Alarm has taken every possible step to offer just the best products in this line.

With an expanding awareness about the endless possibilities for in-car entertainment, there has been a growing demand for such gadgets as rear seat DVD players, car TV, and even satellite radio. An increasingly popular activity is car TV installation in the form of LCD monitors mounted overhead or behind the front seat panels. With the application of Bluetooth integration, you can easily control the player from the back seat itself and watch what you want to watch. These devices are being increasingly mounted inside sports utility vehicles (SUVs) and vans by manufacturers to make a positive impression on the buyers, especially the big family segment. And the move may have well done the trick, what with such entertainment options vanquishing any possibility of drudgery during long drives.

As factory installed devices, rear seat entertainment systems open all doors to abundance in recreation options for back seat occupants. You can fiddle between playing your favourite movie DVDs, watching broadcast media, or integrating your gaming console with the system for some real entertainment. Most of these systems support all the audio, video and image formats prevalent today to deliver maximum modes of self-indulgence in a world of in-car amusement, which is a very well played move by the manufacturers as evident through the market trends. And if you want to take your entertainment a step further and make it more exciting, go for some car accessories in the form of headphones, equalizers, sound processors, iPod integration, and so on.
