Default my quick fix to angle my left tweeter on-axis new pics added

well a few days ago i had the bright idea pop into my head of using hot glue to build up sort of like a pod for my tweeter on my left kick panel. the right tweeter can easily be made on axis within the range of adjustment that the swivel allows. the left side however, was pretty close before but now i am able to easily get the left side perfectly on axis as well.

after listening and adjusting i was able to get the left side tweeter to sound the way i wanted it to finally. i also had to make some minor T/A adjustments and such to help out a bit more but i got it! it now sounds just as loud and detailed as the right side. it actually raised my stage height even more and i now have a more centered sound with the highs as well as everything else. it sounds amazing. for those of you that know my build the PG RSD's are still handling my setup and power just fine. it's really a great set at a great price. but they sound even better run actively.

here are a couple pics. it might not look the best but honestly you can barely tell for either the driver or passenger seats. all i plan to do it paint the glue flat black to match the kicks and i'll be done with it. it was a nice free little mod that made a big difference. :-)







new pics added in third post!
