Subwoofers down-firing or side-firing? Why?


Just added down-firing subs (Omega 10", sealed) to my Omega single driver speakers. I could ask Louis, but why do you think he designed them to be down-firing?  My prior REL and Rhythmiks were side-firing (used with very different systems).

My ML subs are downfiring and placed in opposite corners of the room and are set to work from about 70hz down.
I honestly can NEVER tell they are on, in other words I can never detect where they are by "hearing" bass emanating from a particular corner located sub.
But turn them off?
Who killed the bass player!!

Have never had side firing in this setup so no idea if better but figured that ML know what they are doing........
