    Time alignment

    If I time align my system for the drivers seat, are all other seating positions going to have a horrible listening experience? When you guys do competitions, do you put their test disk or whatever on, and then let them sit in the driver's seat, or do they listen from the passenger seat, or how does that all work?

    I make the payments, so it's set for me. You will find very, very few people who will notice. 99.9% of folks out there have no clue how it's supposed to sound.

    The comps have classes for 1 seat or 2.

    It won't sound horrible for them but the driver's seat will sound better.

    At comps or meets the judge or the person getting the demo usually/always sits in the driver's seat during the judging or demo.

    Tis true, everyone sits in the drivers seat for listening......passenger seat sounds like ass, well, to someone who has sat in the drivers seat anyways....lol. The passenger seat has decent tonality....just no stage, and easy driver localization, as in everything comes from yer sides speakers.....

    not sure if you've seen this but if not, it might be worth a spin to help you get some quick T/A settings...
