[QUOTE="Jepalan, post: 8345209, member: 655519"] My car starts to sound 'thin or hollow' when it gets around 0 degrees F or colder. It gets quieter and loses top & bottom end - like listening through a paper towel tube. I'm no expert, but I've read this is mainly due to 1) speaker suspension can stiffen in extreme cold, and 2) changes in air density make things sound different to your ears. Things sound fine after the car warms up a bit. I've also read where damp foam surrounds can crack in really cold weather if not allowed to warm up. I've never experienced this myself though.
