Yep, I find the same thing. Not surprising though - all the bass gets disapated with the top down while moving...

I find there is plenty of bass when driving. I have the sub tuned for topdown. When I am driving top down there is a little less then when your still because the wind in your ears. Top up, it's crazy bassy and I don't notice a difference.

I have a 12" sub.
