eXXXtreme arosa Posted September 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 mounting the sub inwards or outwards doesnt make a sifrence surely?ive always thought it purely for cosmetic reason? well it will run cooler as the warm air can escape fully instead of just going into a box which will warm up gradually. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
