Subwoofer's Front Firing vs. Down Firing


What are the benefits of a front-firing sub-woofer (if any) vs. a down-firing? Some have suggested that a front-firing sub may be easier and more flexible in it's room placement. Has this been your experience?

What you're not getting is that this forum is Bo's personal web space for hawking products that in his sole opinion sound good. With amazing consistency and dogged determination he uses the forum to promote products he sells. He does it openly and with no shame. While others may attempt to help others and offers their experiences as lessons, Bo knows to keep hawking.

It's Bo's world, deal with it.

Very insightful. Thank you wise man.
Bo's thoughts on woofer "speed" are based on some odd personally promoted mythology and not on actual sound or even a basic understanding of how speakers work. Otherwise he's right on!
Hey Bo1972 there are a couple of Audioquest questions in the cables section.
