Default C6 Speaker Aim..Pics

Well I decided to aim the midbass and mids in my C6.
I went with the maximum angle possible while retaining the stock grills.
Midbass--- 11 degs
Mids--------15 degs. ( I started at 11 but found I could go 15)
Baffles and baking plate are MDF and the covering is Ensolite.
I did have to grind out the plastic on the door panels quite a bit.
Still haven't had much listening time so I won't comment yet.

A few pix:

OK, I've had a little time to listen to the newly aimed speakers.
The difference is not earth shattering and ordinary people would never notice , but there is a definite improvement to the front stage.
It is more defined. The center is much more centered, the left and right is just more distinct, especially when an instrument is playing from L or R.
The front stage still should be higher, and a bit more forward, but I think that would be quite a challenge.
Overall I would say the aiming is an improvement.
