I don't know of a frequency cutoff for stereo operation, neither high nor low?
No such thing. Stereo is 2 channel, each in it's own. Depends on the recording mostly though.

Yea, most low boom is recorded as mono, but there is no reason it couldn't be biased towards one side.

Perhaps the original post was a fudge?

Delays used in bass frequencies during production (recording, etc) can really mess up a sub if you have a DVC wired from a stereo 2-channel amp (L on one side, R on other coil). The type of delay I'm referring to isn't the one that sounds like an echo, there is a time adjustment for the stereo channels. A few milliseconds will fatten the sound up, but with a sub wired that way, one coil will play before the other.

I've even made a song where the only bass was coming out of the right channel.
