[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 91572, member: 30"] Re: Subs, what to do if you lack excursion? Once you have heard subs that ACTUALLY go low (without having to boost the low end) it is REAL hard to listen to "normal" subs. The lower freq response gives a whole new depth and fullness to the sound. I find that people who make the argument that you don't need to go below 40Hz have never actually used subs that go below 40Hz or heck that are even flat to 40Hz. So they don't know what they are missing. McDonalds is just fine-until you eat a real hamburger-THEN you know the difference. There are LOTS of normal music styles that require the extra depth. As soon as the 5 string bass shows up on stage- you BETTER have a sub that goes a lot lower-or you are not doing his music justice. People put those lower freq in the music because they want the listener to HEAR it. If they didn't want you to hear it-then why put it in? [/QUOTE]
