Hi
I believe the test Ivan had suggested will show the point.
If you play some typical rock music at a decent level and adjust it to suit your taste, then look at it with an RTA, you will most likely find the low frequency end is about 10dB hotter than the mid and the high end rolls off some. If you’re talking about BASS heavy music, then this difference is larger.
Google up “equal loudness curves” and examine the low end vs mid levels. This shows actual SPL vs “how loud it sounds”.
