Is he wrong?
Yep, if you use the bass managment of the receiver (which you should). What's not to trust? If you don't use the receivers bass mangement you won't be able to set the crossover frequency of your mains. Hopefully you're not runnig them full range, because the resulting interaction with the sub offers poor results.

This was correct to do right? Otherwise they were additive
Yep, that's correct. When you add the mains, the levels setup needs to be revisited, but you still use the sub pink noise etc., as if the mains weren't there. Don't use full range setup when you add the mains - just reset the levels and test.

If you don't trust the receiver simply use REW to do a loop response test to check it out. We can help you with that if required.
