i have 2 12" 700watt subs in my hatch, i've been messing with the levels to get it to sound just like i like them, but i'm wondering if it makes any differece which way the subs face, like toward the driver or opposite?

It shouldn't really matter what side they are facing. That part has to do with the human ear; the human ear isn't capable to detect where sounds below 80Hz (I believe) are coming from. Think of the subwoofer of the surround-set. You can virtually place it anywhere.
As for the part of subwoofers not doing there job; This all depents on the construction of the enclosure; is it designed to meet the specs of the sub? What about crossovers; maybe set to a too high frequency or a too high db-cut off ? |
