Even though it is a wooded parcel shelf it will still vibrate but not in a way u can hear. Just that is will alter u sound. | |

It does make a difference as the bass still travels in sound waves so u gotta direct it the the best surface to rebound off. Facing the back of the car is a good option but another option is put ur box on one side of the boot facing the other wheel arch. If u want more volume and if u haven't done it yet is get ur whole boot sound deaded. Strip all panels out of the boot and any metal u see put sound deadedning on all so get a can of expandafoam and fill in around ur arches. | |

My sub used to face towards the boot-lid, but it now faces towards the back seat and it seems a bit louder. | |

i read a 4 page thingy where they experimented all positions, angles etc and used proper equipment to test. They found like speed6 said facing the boot is loudest | |

i wouldnt have thought so mate, because sub freqs can not be pin-pointed back to the original source - thats why when you driving around town and a chav goes past in his nova with the vibe subs at full blast, you will not be able to determine the original source of the bass for a little while. | |

Does it make any difference if the cone is horizontal (firing up or down) or vertical (firing sideways)?? |
