inverted subs are known to show no difference in sound.

if a sub is inverted, your terminals should be inverted too. Also, if it's a pair, some people would invert just one. Other invert to free up more space in the box.

the only possible thing you will notice is an increase in mechanical noise...

ie - youwill now hear any tinsel slap, you will now hear the sresses etc... but overall, you wont notice any real difference
