Here is an easy question...should I place my rear ported 12" sub forward or backward to the listening area? I have it backwards now but my friend feels it would sound better facing forwards. My listening room is 18' square with a 9' ceiling with hardwood floors and an area rug. The sub is on the rear wall. I am happy with the sub now..it is a 12" definite tech powerfield sub.
