Important Notes: (Please discuss this in the comment section to help me figure this out too!)
I see people talking about woofer/subwoofer positioning and saying that the low frequencies are omni directional / non directional so it doesn't matter where you position the woofers or subwoofers in your system. The thing that confuses me is that I can certainly hear where a subwoofer or bass driver is positioned. Try these tests in your room:
Position your speakers very wide, the bass will now sound wider too.
Place a subwoofer to the right or left of your listening position. You will be able to tell which side it is on 100% of the time.
Try placing a subwoofer behind or in front of you, again you will be able to tell where it is every single time.
I think this myth may have been started by the home audio industry/HiFi industry to help sell Subwoofers. Perhaps it is easier to fit it in a living room if you tell the buyer that the placement in the room doesn't matter...
