                          Independent Auditors' Report







The Board of Directors and Stockholders
   Audiovox Corporation:


Under the date of March 6, 1998 we reported on the  consolidated  balance sheets
of Audiovox  Corporation and  subsidiaries as of November 30, 1997 and 1996, and
the related consolidated statements of income (loss),  stockholders' equity, and
cash flows for each of the years in the  three-year  period  ended  November 30,
1997,  which are included in the  Company's  1997 annual report on Form 10-K. In
connection  with  our  audits  of  the  aforementioned   consolidated  financial
statements,  we  also  audited  the  related  consolidated  financial  statement
schedules in the 1997 annual report on Form 10-K. These  consolidated  financial
statement  schedules are the  responsibility  of the Company's  management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial  statement  schedules
based on our audits.

In our opinion, such financial statement schedules,  when considered in relation
to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly,
in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
