Asymmetrically?


Using two asymmetrically placed subs will minimize the effects of standing waves in your room, yielding smoother bass response (as well as better dynamic range).

Got this advice off the Polk website.
What the heck does asymmetrically placed mean?

If the main speakers (with their own subwoofers) are placed symmetrically why should the external subs be positioned asymmetrically?

I own two subs, each is positioned directly behind the corresponding front main speaker and (if properly dialed-in) there are no "audible" standing waves. (Forgive me if the latter is not acurate but, I am assuming a standing wave would create boomines in the room. Please correct me if I am misinformed.)
