When the picture looks more like a half circle the sound comes off the cone equally in all directions. When the picture looks more like a narrow peak the sound comes out in a narrow pattern, analogous to a flashlight beam. Since you can't get rid of reflections in a car, spreading the sound as widely as possible is the next logical approach. Yes, you end up with lots of reflections but we don't hear the tiny peaks and dips from the resulting comb filtering. The bigger dips at low frequencies, such as the common null caused by a door-mounted woofer reflecting off a vertical center console, might be heard, but 99.9% of people don't notice it. We can cut energy from peaks caused by the car with EQ. Use EQ. EQ is a wonderful tool, and you have all the time in the world to hone your tuning skills, right?</p></blockquote><p></p>
