Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

If you love Pipe Organ music,

then by all means find a pair of speakers that go down to 20Hz. Also make sure that your listening room is at least 28 ft long. Grand piano go down to about 27.1 Hz.

My Thiel 3.6s have their +/- 3dB cutoff around this frequency, but the +/- 1 dB cutoff is about 30Hz. Virtually most musical informationa is above 30Hz. Organs with 60 foot pipes can produce music that can reach below this level (some Bach solo organ works). As I said before, having speakers that can reach 20Hz is 1/3rd of the problem. Next you have to have a listening room and then the source material.

Best!
