i have 2 12" 700watt subs in my hatch, i've been messing with the levels to get it to sound just like i like them, but i'm wondering if it makes any differece which way the subs face, like toward the driver or opposite?

are your subs dual 4s or single 4s if they are dual 4s then they probably wired each to 8ohms then wired them together for a 4ohm bridged load.what size box do you have.if the sealed box is much over 1.25 cubes per sub its an sq box and you will lose output but gain in clearity. if you want it loud then do what everyone else says and go vented.just make sure to get specs from kenwood they will recommend a size for the box4 an port length.
