General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Bass has a low B

152.3.0.89

I play BEAD on my basses for the most part and have had very few problems getting it to reproduce on most systems. I notice the vibration of the instrument over the sound when playing a B for the most part (it really is a rumble and a pain to control), but even the harmonic of that note is low.

Honestly, I wouldn't worry about getting down to 20Hz in a home system... like others have said, it'll cost more than is really necessary to get something that isn't record in 99% of our music. If it were between throwing down $500-1000 on a decent sub, I'd rather put more money into mains speakers that have a usable room frequency of 50Hz or more. You'll notice more of a difference there.
