It should work fine under the panel, I usually fly with mine buried in the side pocket. I'm with you on the internal speaker.

yes I put an LX-16 in the Cherokee last year and love it. They still might sell the LX-16D although i'm guessing it has been replaced in the product line with the new V3.

I thought it was weird too, but it turned out to be no big deal to install the supplied speaker anywhere you want back there with one screw. Although if you wanted to, I think it would fit nicely in the panel if you had an extra hole to fill. The sound quality has got to be better compared to a smaller speaker and it is plenty loud.

Tony,

The LX-16D is manufactured by LX Navigation

http://www.lxnavigation.si/

The V7-NANO-LX8000-LX8080-LX9000 by LXNAV

http://www.lxnav.com/

The LXNAV team previously worked for LX Navigation the company was started approximately 3 years ago. One of the LXNAV team also is associated with SeeYou Naviter.

This company in my opinion is one of the few glider equiment manufactures that have both hardware and software development experience in house.

Most of the LX stuff come with separete speakers, i put mine behind the
seat

if you have a compass in the panel its probably best not to have a large
speaker magnet near it!
