I've seen people argue that the first half cycle of a bass drum kick
should come towards the listener to be "correct" unless you want
it to sound like it does to the drummer.

But I agree with Phil, there are too many components in the chain
to have much faith that the end-to-end process preserves
phase. Every microphone preamp that costs more than $50 has a
phase (or sometimes polarity) switch, and recording engineers
have been known to push them.
