OK then in the interest of correctness..

You said " I think you have a pretty confused concept of sound waves."
His understanding of soundwaves seems ok to me.
Soundwaves can cancel each other out if they are the same amplitude, if they are similar you get disruption to the waves which can mean either an increase or decrease in volume. I'm a sound engineer by trade. It's like when speakers are out of phase.

You also said.. "I personally don't know of any "don't fire synchronised" setup"
I'm pretty sure that British brownings were not synchronised. They were fired pneumatically which meant they couldn't synchronise them.

Aircraft with synchronised guns fired them electrically. I think the 109 was like this but my 109 knowledge is limited.
