     holding gain relating to available-for-sale marketable
     securities, net of deferred taxes, of $13,320 as a separate
     component of stockholders' equity.

     receivable and issued 250,000 shares of its Class A Common
     Stock, valued at five dollars per share, in anticipation of an

     (Bliss-tel).

(4)  The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement
     128, "Earnings per Share" (Statement 128).  Statement 128
     establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings
     per share (EPS).  The Statement simplifies the standards for
     computing EPS and makes them comparable to international EPS
     standards. The provisions of Statement 128 are effective for
     financial statements issued for periods ending after December
     1, 1997, including interim periods.  The Statement does not
     permit early application and requires restatement of all
     prior-period EPS data presented.  Adoption of Statement 128
     will not effect the Company's consolidated financial position
     or results of operations, however the impact on previously
     report EPS data is currently unknown.

(5)  The Company formed Audiovox Venezuela C.A. (Audiovox
     Venezuela), an 80%-owned subsidiary, for the purpose of
     expanding its international business.  The Company made an
     initial investment of $478 which was used by Audiovox
     Venezuela to obtain certain licenses, permits and fixed
     assets.

(6)  The Company is in the process of purchasing a 20% equity
     investment in Bliss-tel in exchange for 250,000 shares of the
     Company's Class A Common Stock and a credit for open accounts
     receivable of $1,250.  The issuance of the common stock
     resulted in an increase to additional paid in capital of
     approximately $1,248.  The investment in Bliss-tel will be
     accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

(7)  Subsequent to the first quarter of 1997, the Company formed
     Audiovox Specialized Applications, LLC, a 50%-owned equity
     investment, a consolidation of the  Company's Heavy Duty Sound
     division, ASA Electronics and Audiovox Specialty Markets Co.

     agricultural and aviation industries.

     in Audiovox Specialized Applications, LLC.  The agreement
     provides for the sale of 352,194 shares of Class A Common
     Stock at $6.61 per share (aggregate proceeds of $2,328,002) by
     the Company to the Investor.   The transaction resulted in an
     increase to additional paid-in-capital of $2,324,478.  The
     selling price of the shares are subject to adjustment in the
     event the Investor sells shares during a 90 day period,
     beginning with the effective date of the registration
     statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to
     register such shares, at a loss.  The adjustment to the
     selling price will equal the loss incurred by the Investor up
     to a maximum of 50% of the shares.  In the event the Company
     does make an adjustment to the shares, additional goodwill
     will be recorded as the adjustment represents contingent
     consideration.
    

(8)  Receivable from vendor includes a $9,000 prepayment to TALK
     for merchandise to be shipped during the second quarter of
     1997.

(9)  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
     generally accepted accounting principles requires management
     to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
     amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of the
     contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
     statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
     during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from
     those estimates.
