well when i had two 1000watt fli subs and a fli 1000 loaded amp, i had the cones facing into the rear seatsas you get more bass in the car more than it making a tinny sort of sound to people outside your car, but i supose its preference, i had a 15" kicker sub and had the cone facing out, on show when the boot was open. they was both in a seal box but im putting in a 12" alphasonik PSW 812 in now which will take 3000 watt gonna see what thats like with the cone facing inwards.Moderated By: brian@diysubwoofers.org
