Did you continue to reverse the polarity on the replacement? Thanks Ant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've replaced mine with a polk and put a bigger amp in. Just put on a dynamic song and jump in the driver's seat and listen, then change it the other way and do the same. One will sound punchy and the other won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverse it.Thought my replacement 8" soundstream sub was pretty good.Reversed the polarity about 8 months later, just to see how it sounded..... Haven't looked back.Seems to hit the lower notes harder and play the lower bass notes 100% better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
