#5197, "for those of you that know about speaker polarity"


          

I just bought two audiobahn speakers (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18803&item=3004425968&rd=1), and since they are so nice looking from the bottom, i want to display them in a fiberglass box with the magnets facing up (speakers firing downward into box).

first of all, is this a stupid idea? should i just have one face down, and the other face up?

how exactly would i hook them up on a two channel amp? (they are dual voice coil) i've been told you have to hook them up the opposite polarity if they are facing down, so that they move backwards.

also, is there a way to bridge them off my amp? this amp: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18796&item=3002894407&rd=1

i don't know anything about dropping the amp's ohms, but from what i understand, this amp is rated at 2400 Watts RMS x 1 @ 1 Ohm stereo. how would i go about hooking these speakers up so that i get the most power from the amp?

also, do you guys think i got a good deal on this stuff from ebay?
