Since we're talking speakers can I ask about two concepts that continue to intrigue me?

First, Moch-1 makes a cover panel for the underside of the dash that permits mounting a pair of 5 1/4" drivers and a pair of 1" tweeters, firing toward your feet / knees, at the extreme left and right ends of the dash. I guess you could angle the tweeters to point more horizontal, toward your belly-button.

Does it make sense to add more front channel drivers? Or maybe to add different ones, e.g. full-range in the doors and dedicated woofers in the under dash panel?

Second, Moch-1 makes a replacement rear deck that allows a pair of 8" woofers, firing forward.

Might this be a suitable subwoofer enclosure (if you can stand the Batmobile look)? I need the rear seats, so the footwell solution doesn't work for me.

I guess I'm just trying to find any feedback on either the products or the concepts. I've found no-one who's used or even seen the Moch-1 stuff.

I was, incidentally, looking at a disassembled Bose "Wave" desktop radio and was interested in the "waveguide" idea. I was thinking maybe a handy guy (may not describe me) could do something like this in a rear deck enclosure, and thus get a useful rear deck subwoofer enclosure without the Batmobile humps.
