Just an opinion from an old cane shaker.

I've been waiting for you to show up. One of my older hobbies (along with my engineering student buddies) was loudspeaker design. I was all about the Thiele and Small equations, 12 db/octave Butterworth filters, balancing SPL between drivers, cabinet design, imaging and the like. My multimeter measures Henrys as I still occasionally wrap my own crossover coils. Having said that,the inside of a Boxster isn't the best listening environment available. Running down the road with the top down un-distorted volume is going to be king. Along with multiple drivers to adequately cover the audio spectrum.
