[QUOTE="Per Søvik, post: 91577, member: 1285"] Re: Subs, what to do if you lack excursion? The thing is, "needing" a sub that goes linear to 16 hz and delivers 140+ dB of tight undistorted bass is a need that most of us just can't satisfy. Too costly, too heavy and too bulky. If your budget is limited, what else would you give up to satisfy the need? I do agree that you really need a system that are able to do justice to a 5-string B or C bass, but is it reasonable to expect the same chest thumping we sometimes go for with the kick? When making EDM, and you put a little extra subharmonic on the bottom C, is it reasonable to expect that this can always be reproduced in a live outdoor setting? Should one really expect to reproduce the big pipe sub counter C from a church organ in any setting? [/QUOTE]
