Well if I told you...

j/k - a friend of mine had a couple die on him and was told by a contact at Rockford (being a pro has some advantages) that they should not be mounted inverted, and to have decent ventilation.

Not sure who at Rockford told your friend that. I spoke with Dan at rockford who is a product developer and he stated - upside down is no problem! They used to have problems with their power supplies and now apparantly noise - in my case!

Thank DUKK

In his case the bluetooth receiver melted down a couple of times IIRC.. The unit would just stop listening to his Palm and never come back.

Fall build has been put on hold for the next week or so due to an injury! Anyways it's probably a good thing - it's getting to damn cold out!

it wont be 100% done until the new year - once the trunk is wrapped up I have to re-do the dash and make the huge sub box!

Plus I'm having processor noise issues and seriously thinking of going digital!
