[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 60279, member: 30"] Re: Question concerning "end fire subs" And when you turn down the rear cabinet a couple of dB-then you will ALSO reduce the front energy. Endfire and "cardioid" arrays have different effects in the rear-and different sonic characters out front. Typically the "cardioid" (rear sub delayed and flipped polarity) has the greatest amount of cancellation. BUT at the expense of less punch/impact out front and less output than an endfire array. So the choice is sound quality/quantity out front or less sound level in the rear. Choose ONE. DIfferent situations would require different setups-depending on what is most important at the time-for the situation. it is not a matter of which one is "best"-because they each have their own "best" aspects.
