Audio: Sound Meter and Custom Speaker Enclosure Threads?

[jaymar]

Saw these, can't find 'em now. One thread had a colorful photo of a sound meter in the front row, dialing things in. The other had custom made speaker mounts for tweeters; I think they were on the A pillars.

Anyone know where to find these?

Didn’t know about that one, thanks! One I’m thinking of, I think the guy made them out of Fiberglas. Might have been a double mount near center dash, too.

More evidence why the LX is quieter than the Land Cruiser

Having owned both a 2006 LX and Land Cruiser I always felt the LX provided a quieter ride than the Land Cruiser but never had any proof. Recently I installed a Attic Rack in both a 2006 LX and a 2006 Land Cruiser. The LX has more insulation in the ceiling also where the Land Cruiser uses raw...
