Which way to face subs in a car.......

[JakeM 10+ year member]

ive built a few boxes for my truck but now i have a 2000 VW Jetta and I started thinking about how people face their subs in cars.

Should I have them facing the back seats? Thats seams the way to go plus I can have just a black back on my box so it is kinda like a false wall in my truck.

Not real sure, just wondering....

rear facing will be louder! unless you face them in the cabin and seal them off from the trunk then it will be louder that way!

my rule is normally...

facing the rear isn't always correct...mostly is it though...

mine is just as loud both ways.

face it forwards and see if it get louder when you open the trunk, if it does, face them back.
