RE: Even bi-amping doesn't give you that bottom end that comes from having a sub ...

Spot on! :-))

A conductor in Texas who I corresponded with a few years ago was biamping his 20.1s but felt the need to add a pair of subs, so he could hear the sort of meaty orchestral music he heard on the podium.

Having recently added subs to my 3-way Maggies I am loving - as you say - the extra floor to the music! :-)) 16hz organ tones are a revelation!

I am not sure if my hearing goes down that low. Do you hear that or do you feel it?

So many items in the house to stop from vibrating! :)

  Well, yes, that's an interesting question ... and I can't give you a definitive answer.
  
  The first time I played the 16 / 12 and 8hz (filler) test tracks on this Bach organ LP, I heard nothing - even though I could see the stylus wobbling explosively from side to side.
  
  With the new subs, I can now 'register' 16hz ... I think it is a combination of actually hearing something ... and feeling it.
  
  But it is sensational! :-))
