For those people with kick pannels and angled mids, do your legs and those of the passenger block the sound coming from your carfully selected angle????

yup!!

i hate having a passenger with big ass legs in my front seat if i'm in the mood for music.

but most of the time i'm the only one in the car so get to enjoy it all to myself!

also more people weight it down so it goes even slower

hehe most definitely dude like in my kickpanel install i can hear the left side go completely (very obvious difference, i thought my left speaker blew or something the first time this happened lol)when the passenger sticks his legs out too far

wanna know a cheap trick to solve this problem?do what i do, push the passenger seat ALL the way back, and when a mate sits in the car and asks why, tell him its cuz you value passenger comfort and want him to have as much legroom as possible

worked for me!

if they're big and squishy, they should soak up all those secondary and unwanted reflections.

load the cabin with a team of jenny craig devotees except for the direct signal path from the splits - and the SQ improvment should be drastic! go the flab!

Any passenger nagging to turn the volume down will ruin SQ. My girlfriend used my old kickpanel pods as footrests... geez.

Having a front passenger definitely ruins the sound. I even get annoyed with myself as my feet blocks the tweeter on my side in the kickpanel.

having passengers in the car means there's nowhere to fit "all da fully-shick cheiks dat will run for ur beast when dey her da shyshtem"
