Default Subwoofer Setup Question!>>|?|

I'm going to be running 3) 12" Rockford T1 Power Subs, and I need to know if i can mount them, 2 inverted, and 1 regular...like this....



I'm going to be running an amp for the 2 outer subs, and another amp for the center.

Yes, just make sure the enclosure is divided. Also, you will need to reverse the polarity on the two woofers that are inverted. The positive from the amp will need to go to the negative on each woofer and the negative from the amp will need to go to the positive of each woofer.

^ Either that or reverse the phasing on the one amp that will be powering the inverted woofers.

so i can either reverse the + & - on the subs, or just reverse it on the amp... either way will work? cool... thanks guys.

Reversing the + and - at the amp would be the easiest way, unless the amp has a "phase" switch on it, then use that. The main concern is that the amplifier's + goes to the woofers' -, and amplifier's - goes to the woofers' +.
