Wow, this was really interesting to read. I’m not super deep into all the tech terms, but it honestly makes sense. I’ve bought car speakers before, and you’re right — the boxes are full of flashy words but don’t actually say anything useful. I just end up picking the one that looks nice or has good reviews, which probably isn’t the best way to do it.

It’s kind of surprising that after all these years, they still don’t share proper specs. You’d think with how advanced everything’s gotten, it’d be easier to compare and buy what actually fits your car. I guess for people like me, it just means we’re still guessing and hoping it sounds good once it’s installed.

Even if they just provided recommended mounting location, that would be a help.  Something like "designed for trunk mounting" or "best when mounted in door or kick panel where rear chamber space is small."  That would give an indication of its basic tuning.

Might be best to do both - give T/S specs and suggested placement - because some people might not know how to interpret T/S specs but they would surely know if the speaker was made to go in a large trunk or a small kick panel.
