Description of HOW to invert subs?


Recommended Posts

You don't have to flip the polarity, only if one is reversed and the other isn't.

Only if you really feel the need to do it, you can do it if you want, but it won't matter.

Thinking is the root of all problems...

You ALWAYS get what you pay for.

Step 1: Grab woofer

Step 2: Flip woofer over

Step 3: ???

Step 4: Profit :)

But in all seriousness, you want to make sure it is mounted perfectly so nothing rubs against the baffle, and you want to switch the phase. Don't most amps come with a phase knob, where you can turn between 0 and 180 degrees? Seems to me you would just turn it to 180 degree, but I may be wrong. I am a noob :)

WARNING: EXTREMELY IN DEPTH GUIDE

1. Remove the sub

2. Unhook the positive wire

3. Unhook the negative wire

4. Invert the sub

5. Align the screw holes

6. Make sure the surround doesn't rub on the box

7. Screw in the sub

8. Pause and admire how cool an inverted sub looks

9. Attach the POSITIVE wire from the amp to the NEGATIVE terminal on the sub

10. Attach the NEGATIVE wire from the amp to the POSITIVE terminal on the sub

11. Get excited

12. Remember that you gained some airspace

13. Flick through your iPod to play a song with some low notes to see if they are any louder

14. Post back here on how cool your subs look

:drinks:

switching polarity only matters if you invert one sub and keep the other normally mounted.

wrong answer your subs hit they move out of the box so if you invert them... you need to switch + and - so once again the sub is now playing in phase with the box.... read and learn before you give out false info... thanks

If you are ever satisfied, sounds like you gave up... Never Satisfied ~Team Ns~

YEA cause what you are saying is that it does not madder what the polarity is on a speaker when in a box... when u get board go out side and flip your polarity and tell me that you can not hear the difference... than come write back...
