"...the industry will ultimately benefit from your knowledge and expertise as you find your next challenge..." - Steve Haddad - Music Systems

"Your words ring strong, are recognized and respected...I have PERSONALLY valued every moment that I have been in your company and all the time I have shared your wisdom of the industry." - Mike Dadiego - V.P. Customer Service - Mobile Toys

" I wanted to take a second and thank you so much for everything you have taught me over the years. While working closely with you the past five years I have not only gained things that will benefit me professionally, but personally also. Your ability to analyze a situation and formulate a quick solution has always been something that I have strived to be able to do. Even though I feel that I am able to do this well, I still aspire to be able to do it to the level that you can. Now, whenever I do things, I still think to myself…what would be the way that Rob would want it? As long as I do that in every situation I seem to not only come out on top, but feel good about my decision also. The two are a very rare combination. Based off of what you have taught me; there is no situation that I shy away from, and/or not confident that I can succeed in doing. So, for all this I thank you, and hope that I can continue to grow from the things that you have shown me. " Eric Borowy - Operations Manager - Sound Waves

"I have always found you to be one of the hardest working, innovative professionals in the car audio industry. It was always pleasure doing business with you because of your fairness and objectivity. I hope that we can do business again together in the future"

Dave Prall - Blaupunkt - Zone Manger

"One reason I have so much respect for you, is I know the personal Rob better than most people. I know your values, the respect you have for your friends and family, the lack of prejudice you have for people. One thing that gets missed sometimes as a business owner is, especially successful business owners, is your motivations were not completely money driven. Whether you knew it or not, part of the effect you have on people is you help them improve their lives, and I do not mean just financially.

This statement should have a huge impact on you: Rob, you have been directly responsible for changing the lives of many people. Changing their lives. Think about that and say it out loud. Some of them like myself know it. Others do not, but you have...

You had one hell of an awesome run, and have accomplished things that other people will work their entire lives towards and never do half of what you have done. You can now walk away from Soundwaves knowing you were a huge powerhouse in the industry, had a strong influence on the direction the industry has gone, changed the views of huge companies, set new standards of excellence, and you did all of this in a respectable and professional manor that you should be proud of.

The last thing you need to know is the impact you have had on my life. I have you to thank for part of who I am today. You taught me self reliance, responsibility, helped me through tough times, how to think like a business man, how to be a great salesperson, and so many other things I can not list, but most importantly you taught me to think about life and the big picture. And you did all of this by leading by example."

Jason Denton - Signature Marketing

"I will be graduating this Saturday from Drexel University. I owe you for more than you know. You taught me the value of a job done well in every detail. You taught me how to be completely responsible for every part of the job regardless of how small it was. You taught me to push myself to a higher level to excel every day. You taught me how to accept mistakes as one time learning opportunities; learn from them. You taught me about commitment and discipline. You were able to make me want to do my absolute best for you. I have not to this day and probably never will have a boss or supervisor that has had such an impact on me. Things you taught me carried me though my education. I crossed every t and dotted every i. You taught my how cutting corners and cheating a job would always come back to haunt me. I now live my life by most of what you taught me. I won't bother you any more about this because it may not be as important to you as it is to me but I just wanted to thank you. Thank you for challenging me and thank you for teaching me so much..." - Ernesto Resto - Engineering - InterDigital Communications
