inverted subs

[corteznewbie]

if i invert my subs in my jeep by chance will it hit lower or louder. some one said inverted subs sound better in a ported box

its done for 2 main reasons...air space or aesthetics (sp?) but it will make more airspace inside so it will lower tuning a little bit

Not only that but the more air space the more efficient your amp will be.

will that mean easier hair tricks?

my soundstream 10's sound better inverted than regular, dunno why tho

and thats prolly why my mtx 8000 15 hit lows better inverted than regular

most likely no. the advantages to inverting are a slightly larger amount of box air space and lower tuning and possibly better cooling for the voice coils.

When I inverted my subs my peak freq. dropped from 47 to... 41?

for sure, I did it just to try it out and I loved the way it sounded so I kept them inverted.
