I have been watching some of Erin's Audio Corner reviews and his recent interview with Audioholics. He is one of the premier subwoofer review guys. In a number of his pieces he mentions the importance of having phase control on the subwoofer (he has gone further to say 0 degree and 180 degree is not quite enough, but ratio scale phase control is critical). I have not heard many other people emphasize this point.
So my question is why is this the case?
The practical implication is that there are a number of brands that don't have this that would be ruled out in terms of purchases (PSA, Klipsch [just has 0, 180]).
EDIT: I was wrong about PSA. They include phase control as a delay in milliseconds. Thanks to @MZKM
