Again, a light-coned, low Q Lowther seems to do a (much?) better job reproducing a 100 hz signal, which is smack middle of the bass range, than a heavy, high Q aluminum coned woofer. I agree that you cannot call that fast bass, but what do you call it? Better articulation?
I don't remember how each driver fared with square wave, which I think I tried, but if the Lowther can reproduce a square wave better, then maybe we can simply call it distortion because the high Q woofer cannot follow the wave form as well.
These effects were clearly audible, but I did not take any measurements so I cannot point to any data per se. But this experiment is so easy to do, if others don't want to trust my experience, then they should do it themselves. I am interested in the experience of others with this.
