RE: "4th has 360 degrees phase shift." ...

The good news is that something that is shifted by 1 cycle (or a half-cycle and then inverted) is very hard to perceive because although it has minuscule delay, it interacts with the overall signal just as if it were in-phase. The timing error does show up in transient analysis, however.

Speaker design shares some things with the lossy compression debate: Does the signal need to be absolutely correct if it still sounds correct? :)
