[QUOTE="bbeljefe, post: 8251407, member: 655960"] Lowering the windows improves low end response and it happens in all vehicles with any sub arrangement. The reason why is that bass notes are very long (the lower the longer). With the cabin sealed up the reflection causes a faster decay/deformation of the wave form, which causes them to change frequency and thus sound different to us. By opening the cabin up you allow lower bass notes to travel past your ears without as much change in their shape, which makes them sound more like they sounded before they started bouncing off things.
