RE: The requirements for accurarcy

This issue isn't one of absolutes. All else being equal, a musical reproduction system that is 3 dB down at 25 Hz is inherently more accurate than one with a 3 dB point of 55 Hz. Yes, low distortion counts for something, as does SPL. However, it simply isn't meaningful to say that one or the other of these attributes is most important, and to claim a system to be more accurate as a result of that characteristic alone. That's why I responded to the statement regarding the accuracy of bass horns the way I did. As a blanket statement, it isn't true.

"Any direct radiator that is flat down to 20Hz is going to be 18 to 21" in diameter."

That's not true either.
