Waveguides for Your Car A-Pillar and also Pods


Ive been working with an automotive audio guy the last few weeks incorporating a waveguide into or on the A Pillar.
I've been working with PHASS drivers. The AT58C which reminds me a lot of the N26C. This one we are working on building into the A-Pillar so all I need to come up with is the guide and mounting it to the driver. I'm also working with the DTM25C. This is a Neo diamond version of the AT58C.

I made up a test model so I could reproduce some of the reflections that you get in an automobile. I was surprised at how bad they are. Basically I was trying to eliminate some of the first reflections and have the spl level drop off fairly quick off axis to help with the reflections. Rather then post all my results you can go here and look if you like.
