Inverting my subs, afraid of surround rubbing...


Recommended Posts

so, being as my box and my subs are out, i got the idea to invert my subs....well re ideaed the idea i had if that makes sense, just never got around to it the first time, im afraid of my subs rubbing against the baffle seeing as i have quite a bit of excursion, anyone have a soloution? or had any problems like this?

Legal TL scores145.6 on the dash sealed up in the low 40hz area with the port out145.5 on the dash sealed up @30hz with the port inless then 1k clamped on a 3.5k!

Why would you EVER WANT flex?
huh?...flex is what can make the lows lower and more air being pushed correct?

mount sub normally, make a pencil mark around the gasket. flip sub upside down and line up using the mark.

the thing is, it has a little play, meaning i can shift it one way or another, so should i just take my best guess and go for it?

thanks kranny

What I do to check, I mount it inverted, then with my finger go inside the basket and put the surround down lightly so I don't damage, but to see if it touches. Another way you can check if you have more than 1 subs, mount it inverted wire it, play it at a low volume and put your head in the box and see if it hits.

I'll admit, half way through sanding that fiberglass in the rain and cold while I was all itchy I was definitely starting to question why i was doing this haha
