Thanks for the kind words about my Beetles. The convertible is TOTALLY customized in every detail. I even made up the color myself. I am sure that with the suggestions made by Craig and Curtis, this stereo could be perfect (tilting the speakers down a bit so I could hear the tweeter, etc.) but I think it sounds great now. I really don't watch a lot of movies, but I do like to listen to loud, smooth music. At first, I really didn't think I liked the sub. It seemed WAAAAAY too loud, but after the "METER BOYS" left, it sounds WONDERFUL!

Maybe we can get together again and play with it more sometime if you guys are game. I can get some wedges of some sort to point the front speakers down a bit and see what that does to the overall sound.
