i have a 02 camry, whenever i listen to music i put my seatsdown so the bass is louder, i was wondering if i turned the subs to face towards me, instead of the back of the car, would it sound better and will it stop any vibrating, its a se in a ported box

can you please answer my question.

which way hits the low frequencies the best in a trunk of a car.

an 18" facing up in a trunk or a 15" facing back towards the trunk?

like if i get an 15" and an 18" eclipse TI.

i know an 18" has a lower end but wont it lose some of the low end facing up in the trunk?

i heard that when you face them back, the low frequencies bounce off the trunk.
