In Reply to: Is Replicating Bass Even Possible In The Average Room? posted by thetubeguy1954 on October 18, 2010 at 14:00:42:
The room dimensions will dictate the lowest resonance frequency of the room and below this you will get an increase from room gain. Think about how they get deep bass out of car systems, which is much more tightly sealed and much smaller than an average room. There 20Hz is no problem either.
Resonances are standing waves but the bass from the driver is pressurizing a wave that travels through the air (as the air compresses/rarefies), which will eventually pass your ears and excite the hairs and other mechanisms in your ear.
The idea that bass cannot be supported in too small a room is a myth.
