Is there an upside down for amps?

Or fabricate some clamps out of aluminum and sort of "hang it" from the rear deck. Sounds funny but I've seen it done and when done right it looks fine.

Come on man, everyone knows that mouting the amp upside down makes the electrons flow out better, you get AT LEAST 1.5x the rated power out of the map with it mounted upside down...

j/k

I may just add the amps to the box design. I've got a pro working on it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

x2, it looks nice when you do that. I dont know about you'll but if I had a nice amp I would want to show it off, make it seen. However I have mounted amps everywhich way, but have always used cooling fans where airflow may be an issue.

For some other amps it may cause a problem, but I remember reading an article on the ED NiNe.1 and it runs really cool even on its highest settings. It's a really good amp so you shouldn't have any problems. I've seen people design a push and pull system with 12 volt computer fans, but that may causes interference. I'm assuming your mounting it on the trunk lid for cosmetic reasons. I would suggest you reconsider and mount it under the driver seat because its

1. the install is much cleaner

2. anti-theift precaution

3. Save on power wire

he got a good point, under the seat is the best thing to do , and very wise thing also(if it fits..) . but hey, let me know how the NiNe.1 perform in your system! curious to know..
