phase question...

ok say you took a set of tweeters/mid-ranges and put them at a 90 degree angle to each other

picture a car with the mids down in the doors and the tweeters in the kicks facing straight back. with their paths criss crossing

now.. i know theres more to consider than just this.. but do you think it would make sense to wire one of them out of phase?

i know there would be a cancelation at the crossover point, but consider every other freqency for a second. if they both pushed out at the same time and since their paths are criss crossing, wouldnt these waves collide and tend to cause all types of problems...

when i picture a speaker playing, i try to imagine it almost as if its playing under water.. (if that makes sense or not)and what the ripples or waves would look like... and it seems as though if one was going the opposite direction it would seem to cause less problems..

then again, i might be wrong, and like i said, i know theres other factors to consider, but just wondering if anyone has any constructive input.
