[QUOTE="CrossoverOre, post: 8201096, member: 642052"] Whenever I mount an amp in that location I always make sure the orientation of the amp is facing up. Not as easy as just mounting it upside down there is something to what nvturbo said. Amps are designed to mounted in almost any configuration except upside down. Heat rises and with the amp upside down any heat generated will not be dissipated. Thats why you dont see heat sinks on the bottom of amps. They are always on the top or side of the amp. If you must mount upside down do like trumpet said and tune properly, which should be done anyway but you might want to tune them a little light. [/QUOTE]
