too many sub inverted threads......

[r.meeker 10+ year member]

I searched and searched and there is alot of opinions out there. I have ONE 12" sub I would like to invert, Do I wire it the same or reverse the polarity? I thought changing the polarity was for two or more subs or when isobaric"push/pull method. If reversing the polarity, just switch the leads on the sub or on the amp?

Thanks

you don't have to reverse it in a 1 sub setup.

According to the director of R&D for Stillwater designs ( Kicker ) you only have to worry about reversing the polarity in an isobaric setup.

So I wired it inverted, RF T1 single 12" and what a difference it makes at least for my setup.

Its in a 2.3 cu.ft @ 37 hz. Holy $hit the bed, twice as loud.

only a RF T400-2 running it.
