[QUOTE="T3mpest, post: 8165502, member: 560148"] Subs dont' know how much power they are having applied to them. Asking how them perform under RMS is like asking how they'd perform with RMS, when you turn the volume knob down, (that would also be under RMS lol). That's the LAST thing you ever worry about when it comes to speakers, underpowering. AA does make nice speakers and they tend to play upper bass better than most of FI's stuff, but that wasn't a concern of yours so I wouldn't bother making a switch. The xcons like space, especially if you want them to play low, invert mounting really does seem like the best solution here, just get the subs high enough off the ground and I dont' imagine you'd snag them if you were half way being careful. It'll buy you an extra .5 cube or so I'd imagine. How did the sub up port up sound on upper bass notes? Ignore the 30hz and down stuff, try some tones and see how much you gain lose from 40hz and up. If you find that most of your loss was the 40 and down stuff, you could do a sub up port back combo. That would get the port playing lows loading off the back and get the subs off the ground where they shouldn't catch anything. [/QUOTE]
