Back seats up or down?

I noticed there are 2 speakers or woofers directly behind the back seats.Does stereo sound improve with the back seats down hence not getting in the way.Do most of you owners have the back seats up or down most of the time?

Dealer told me that supposedly with them down the sound is better, but I'm not an audiophile so I dunno if thats just opinion or fact.

In my case though, they're removed either way for roll-cage so dont gotta worry about

I keep mine down, not as much for the stereo sound (which I haven't really noticed a difference) but because I like the look better. The back seats are a different color on the backside, than the backside of the front seats. It's just a cleaner, neater look to me.....

Wow, I rarely ever turn on my stereo, haven't even thought about it. I'll have to try it next time it rains.
