Your opinion is 100% incorrect and you are either lying here, have extremely crappy crossovers or just don't have a clue how to set up equipment.

Period.
It's all about what a person can hear or detect. He stated a person cannot hear frequencies below 80hz. I disagreed. He stated that a subwoofer sounds the same no matter where it is in a room and the shape, acoustics of a room make no difference nor does how the sub is facing. I totally disagree. My point about speakers out of phase is that some people can hear it, some can't. Some people have a hard time with low bass - it hurts their ears. Most sub manufacturers suggest best positioning for their sub's. Right in the owners manuals, plus suggest reasons for optional phase selection and crossover. Why do you think they do that?

If you take aa hardwood floor, in a hard room and place the sub in the middle, the characteristics are totally different if you cover the floor in broadloom and hide it in a corner. If you as well as he, believe that bass is totally non-directional... you are dead wrong. It is MORE non-directional than mids or highs but unless you're down to 20 or 18hz... most people I know agree that it is not totally non-directional despite what a course tells you.
