Duvanator Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 I think the reason they say to keep them away form the roof is so when you port back (like your case) there is plenty or room for the sound waves to travel around to make it up front. so to make sure your not choking your output i think (i could be wrong, just kinda thinkin out loud lol) Quote head unit - Panasonic MXE CQ-C7403U amp - Cerwin-Vega EXL 1200D subs - (x2) Cerwin Vega V-MAX 15.4 box - 5.8 ^3 at 32hz spkrs- Phoenix Gold Rsd Comps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decaf Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 pictures would help see its a catch 22... the closer to the roof the more loading and pressure can be built up on the cone... but with ports back... it can also limit air flow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
