Does inverting the subs (magnet on the outside of the box) have any advantages over having the subs in the traditional configuration?

 

Yes, if looks is an advantage. Otherwise no. A speaker pushes and pulls egually and would create a frequancy on both sides of the speaker. That is why a speaker is mounted in an enclosure such as a box. The lower the frequancy being produced the more important the separation is. If you do mount the sub upside-down be sure to reverse the + and -. (change phase 180 degrees).

 

Now if you want somthing really crazy mount a sub reverse on an already installed sub.

<)|(> I cant remember whats thats called though.

 

It is called isobaric loading.
