Strangely I don't do "bass slam"....

I often read about "bass slam" and I don't subscribe to it because....... I'm a bass player.

Maybe I don't need to hear that much bass - I know what it does, and I can fill in a lot of its function in my head. Kind of "the shoemakers children have no shoes..."

But another reason is that what I want to hear is clean and well defined bass with TONE rather than "slam". I play double bass and that actually doesn't have much "slam" - the response is pretty even right down from top to bottom.

"Slam" is usually artificial - electronically boosted bass as in Reggae etc. It's an effect, and not a product of acoustic instruments.
