yea SOME bass will be coming out the rear but the majority is coming from the front of the cone area. since bass is non-directional, sound wise it won't matter if they face front or rear, but there is a larger volume of frequencies coming from the front of the cone since there isn't wood, poly fill, etc to absorb the waves. hence more to reflect & louder volume
Gotcha, Blowme...
I KNOW --- and you are absolutely right --- that bass is non directional and therefore, in theory, a subwoofer can be placed anywhere. So, if I switch my box around to fire the woofers forward into the rear seat, you think because the rear of the box will now be facing the trunk, I wont get that "bass wave" to develop and couple the sound; the subs' cones should be firing toward the open area of the trunk in order to make better bass?
