alright, here's my question. i've got a pair of 10's and they're mounted inverted. right in front of my box i have my PS2, it's right under the magnets of my subs. will the magnets mess up my PS2? i've seen them mess up tv's and computer screens but i didn't know if it would do anything to my PS2. need some input on this.

i would avise against this setup as the PS2 has onboard memory that coul be erased by these subs. try putting the ps2 unde one of the seats or on the rear deck behind your back seats (if you have any). good luck with the install.

see you have 2 problems here, electrical distortion and magnetism. for the first one just create a box out of metal and ground it. for the second use a lead based insulation.
