Subwoofer Phase Control


Does a continuous phase control make subwoofer placement easier and more flexible? Most audiophile subs have this feature but some other (well regarded) brands, like REL, do not. Why is this?

Cos REL doesn't want people doing diligent bass control in their room and practical use case of integrating sub and mains. Cos a continuous phase control with some sanity check RTA measurements leads to a better blended speaker/sub response in your room. Taking that away seems counterintuitive but I guess REls magically integrate so there's nothing to worry about /s @discus99
