Sorry for the crappy rendering, i was too lazy to put any better detail or flip the DC logo.

Mount em normally.. never been a fan of inverted subs, except in Assmans wall w/ the 24 10s in it. Even in his setup, only a couple of them are inverted.

Send me the 3d model of that sub //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif what format is it in?

no inversions

One benefit to consider being gained by inverting one driver per pair, is the reduction of harmonic distortion created by any non-linearity in the suspension. It's called push-pull and it sometimes yields a dramatic difference. Even the best drivers don't always offer completely symmetrical Cms plots. The downside might be that some drivers have large amounts of mechanical and turbulence noise that may negate that effect.

So how many of the noobs are looking at this explanation with this face - //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

I definitely dont consider myself an audio noob, and i had to read it twice.

I had to read it twice over myself, but once i really started thinking about it instead of just looking at the words lol it made sense.

Yeah, sorry guys. I probably didn't articulate that very well but I did manage to find a link that puts it in layman's terms pretty well. It's the last description at the bottom for "compound push-pull. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
