yes, they are awesome subs, and NO, it makes no difference if you mount the magnet out. the sub is just a transducer that transforms a/c signal into a piston that moves the cone inward and outward. it doesnt car how you mount it. keep in mind though, that if you mount the sub with the magnet out, it will be 180 degrees out of phase with the rest of the system, so you will need to reverse the + and - wires for both subs (on a side note, sometimes subs sound better 180 degrees out of phase, so you can try both, but anyways...). if ony one sub is out and the other is in, just reverse the wires on the "out" one.

the DVCs sound really damn good in a 2 cubic foot sealed enclosure (per sub). thats perfect for a square box in the hatch that fits perfectly and is 2-3" below the plane the hatch cover creates (assuming you use both subs).

:shhh: i do cocaine :/shhh:

Yeah - I had 3 10" Rockford Fosgate DVC Subs in a Custom Box and it rocks.

I had to sell it because it took my Entire Trunk. If you ever seen a Eclipse Spyder Trunk, you will know what I am talking about.

I paid $600 for the speakers ($200 per speakers) and the box was free (Package Deal). Well actually the Insurance Company paid for it. Hahahaha.

Later,

yeah, rockford DVCs are great. I had 2 12s in my car and it was awsome. I have a 15" Kicker L7 now and Im thinking about switching back.
