I am about to start fiberglassing the trunk of my 05 civic....My only question is should i face the subs towards the cabin or towards the rear of the trunk. I would like to know what the pros and cons of both setups would be....Thanks in advance

I like fiberglassing into the rear quarters in the trunk and angle the woofers accordingly.

My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.

calculate the woofer sag with this calculator. if the sag is over 5% then you have to point them at a 90 degree angle to keep your subs safe from the pull of gravity.

also read the line that is on there to Adire Audios white paper.

Want to know some good equipment- JL,Adire Audio,Mcintosh,Brax,Helix,Eclipse,JBL,RE,Dimoand Audio,Zapco, pritty much anything DYhon,Forbidden recommend

On the12volt you give some info and you get in

Thanks but that wasnt really what i was looking for.....The question was should the 2 subs face towards the cabin of my car or should they face out towards the rear bumper...(the subs are going to be in the trunk)..They are both going to be fiberglassed facing the same direction but i dont know what direction...I would like to know the pros and cons of facing towards the front of the vechicle vs. facing them towards the rear of the vechicle....thanks

Is this in a coupe or sedan? My buddy's '05 coupe beats harder with the subs facing the rear, but my Civic sedan beats harder with the subs facing up, towards the lid of the trunk (thanks jeffchilcott for the advice!).

Its a coupe...but my firend has a system that sounds better facing the rear seats, so i dont know.....i dont really want to face the subs up.....So i was thinking about facing thme towards the rear seats....If i dont face them toards the rear seats I am definatly facing the ports towards tham.....THanks

If its a coupe, then your best bet is to face the subs toward the rear.
