What is the audible effect of 180 polarity change between HF and mids?

[QUOTE="Jay Barracato, post: 41416, member: 24"] Re: What is the audible effect of 180 polarity change between HF and mids? That is what I thought. Let me take a shot at summarizing: The flip in absolute polarity at the crossover may cause cancellation around the crossover if two signals of the same frequency are similar in magnitude but opposite polarity, the flip in absolute polarity at the crossover is probably not noticable when comparing different frequencies within the same passband, and the flip in absolute polarity may cause some distortion if the fundamental is in one passband and a higher harmonic is in the other passband and the opposite polarity.
