What about dispersion 'efficiency' of a front vs down.
It would seem that a down firing is sending output in all directions - to the sides and the rear - and resultant interactions and add'l reflections with the front wall, equipment to the sides. Whereas a front firing would be more efficient at beaming energy/content into the listening area.
Just guessing....never tried any tests - but it is something I've wondered about front vs down firing.
