Well I never park any of my cars out of eyesite from habit.

And she spends every night locked, alarmed, behind 2 double-locked doors in a garage... with a dog. Mechanic puppeh is actually getting to a threatening size now too Very Happy

I have a nice boring Barina for a shopping trolley when I need it, so I don't mind my car looking good.

As for sound quality, that's all purely personal so there's not much point discussing it. All I can say is that I spent several days doing nothing but listening to different speaker setups, and every set of 4x6's that I listened to lacked punch in the midrange... including JBL's. And medium-low frequency was a total non-event. The sub will carry the low range definitely, but when you're going from a 4x6 to a sub, you'll have a bit of a gap there in the mid-low range, and I clearly heard that when I was testing. There was pretty much no difference between the 6x9's & the straight 6 inch speakers, but as soon as you dropped down to a 5 or 4 inch speaker, you straight away heard some of the mid-low range drop off... and this was with a sub running constantly throughout the testing.
Draven will back me up on this too - he was with me for one of the days I was testing speakers at lifestyle. Between 6's & 6x9's there was pretty much no difference, but as soon as you went smaller than a 6 you could hear it drop off.
