Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Self-perpetuating spurious bullshit

The low note on the piano is 27.5 Hz but go ahead and bang away on it and measure how much softer it is than the same amount of pressure on A-440 in the middle or 4186Hz on top.

As a consequence, speakers "flat" to approx. 40Hz and down 6 dB (F6) in the mid-20s will accurately reproduce bass music whether it be Haydn, Harry James or Hoodoo Zombies.

You want to blow candles out you can use a sub-woofer that is impossible to musically integrate with quality speakers or go for something like the Diavelets (a relative has a pair) that produce chest-thumping bass and room clearing mids and highs or some multi-woofer coffin with Xmax of 8" and Bungee Chord Bass.
