There seems to be no relevant 3rd part coverage about this company. Damiens .rf 14:32, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete- As per CSD:A7, Company; doesn't indicate importance/significance. Printer222 (talk) 14:59, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Crutchfield has plenty of reasonable indications. Cburnett (talk) 02:50, 3 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Strong keep and beef up. I know this company name immediately. Ghits over 2 million.  A widely respected name.  I will work on this now. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 15:39, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
 * How many of these Ghits refer to non-trivial 3rd party coverage about the company? Also, let me respectfully suggest you reading WP:COI. --Damiens .rf 17:05, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I appreciate the respect, but WP:COI does not apply to me. I am not employed by, hold stock in, nor am in love with the company.  I simply know that it is definitely notable enough for here. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 17:10, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
 * CobaltBlueTony is an editor of long standing. What is your evidence for your claim of conflict of interest? He doesn't seem to have edited the article until seeing this AFD, which doesn't make sense if he works for the company.--Dhartung | Talk 23:00, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep One of the top mail-order electronics companies in America is definitely notable. References have been added and more can easily be added to flesh things out.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 21:30, 2 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep, instantly recognizable car audio brand. 1000 results for crutchfield+audio -- those are the reliable sources you couldn't find searching regular Google. --Dhartung | Talk 23:00, 2 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep, instantly recognizable to anyone who's ever shopped for car audio, and thus no valid argument posed. I have trouble assuming good faith here when Damiens pounces on the first "keep" vote by defaming the voter.  Cburnett (talk) 02:50, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I DIDN'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! --Damiens .rf 12:07, 3 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep per Dhartung. Clearly notable. Maxamegalon2000 06:29, 3 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep as well-established, notable company. --Badger Drink (talk) 08:40, 3 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Admin comment: I've removed some of the more strident off-topic discussions. I appreciate people defending me, but assumption of good faith goes both ways.  I'm perfectly capable of defending myself.  Pouncing on users, "justified" or not, is counterproductive, and evokes too much personal involvement.  Please comment on content, not the users.  Thanks! - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 01:00, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. Obviously notable.  Wikidemo (talk) 19:29, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - There are secondary source articles out there for this company. Article just needs more work.  --Captain-tucker (talk) 11:34, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
