In Reply to: 3 Woofers and only 40 Hz?? posted by ithomsonb on March 19, 2007 at 18:04:36:
As a sometimes speaker designer, let me comment that the number of woofers has nothing directly to do with bass extension. It's box size and efficiency that get traded off against bass extension. If you add more identical woofers and keep the same box size, you will gain efficiency but the trade-off is you lose bass extension.Let me also comment that really well-paid marketing departments are not constrained by the same laws of physics that speaker designers are burdened with.
