Looking good. With pods like that, or even with your Neon, do you ever get localization comments from judges since the speakers are so much in view or the listener? Would be somewhat difficult to try and 'erase' them from your mind when listening I would think.

any judge worth it should never take what his eyes see into account when judging a car......all the times the neon ever got judged i never got a negative comment...... i would like to think that any judge judging a pro car aould know better

I agree, but sometimes it can be difficult to remove the 'human' factor lol I'm hoping to hear it if I make it up to the Penticton show. I'd like to give the Neon another listen too if possible.

still looking great, loving the anticipation of the step by step process.

one question, those indented grooves above (or in front of) the tweeters, is that for aesthetics only? or a waveguide type thing you got goin' on there?
