Several conditions for speakers in door versus kickpanels, I can see here:

Pros:
+Space, for feet and for my front sub
+For some reason I feel it makes the stage wider running off-axis in the OEM door location


Cons:
-Space, for some people is important.
-Speaker environment, I have the feeling that Yari's doors are not very good speaker boxes.
-Difficult to build & finish but not impossible


Probably there are more +/- but I think kick panels are great and much better for mid/bass, if it wasn't that I'm in love with the idea of having a subwoofer in front, I' will continue building my kickpanels. Every time I move the sub to the trunk I feel the Bass on my seat, when I move it to the front, I feel the bass on my body. (price less)

There for, I'm going to give up the idea and work around the OEM door locations and deal with it. I really want a sub in front!

Many people stated me that a good strong Midbass up front will deal having the sub in the trunk, Yes I agree, this time I'm going to follow what I feel/hear is more pleasant to me. Even though at the meet with other car audio enthusiasts a couple of guys commented that I had really good Mid/bass (one of them was a SPL guy) and now changing to the new L6s it's just going to get better.
