I just bought a Sony SA-WX700 Subwoofer. It seems to work good but theres something odd about it.
The bottom speaker fires into the cabinet. The back of the speaker and magnet hang down and are
covered by a black mesh bowl type cover, kinda like a spaghetti strainer....... Is this right or did
they put the speaker in upside down ?????? Their are no good pics on Sony's website..... Does
anyone have one of these subs ????? Is it like mine ????

Thanks
Brian.......

It is correct - I checked the service manual. One woofer fires forward, the
other has the magnet hanging down as you describe.

Remember, both sides of a speaker code radiate sound.

Remember, both sides of a speaker cone radiate sound.

Thanks Mark,

It just struck me as odd that they would aim the speaker into the cabinet without having a bass
port..... Kinda seems like a waste.........

Didn't it strike you as odd that they would put the speaker in upside
down...then build a 'black mesh bowl cover' for it, and install that...

....accidentally?

No, the speaker could face out and the basket would protect it like the grill protects the front
speaker......
