New member Username: Juggy_25Post Number: 10 Registered: Apr-06 | The Subwoofer (8" cone, powered)Config shows: Frequency Response (-3 dB) :35 Hz ~ Crossover Frequency Usable Freq. Resp. (- 10 dB) :30 Hz Subsonic Filter : 2nd Order: 30 Hz Amplifier Power : 100 Watt before clipping Crossover Frequency : Continuously Variable :50 ~ 150 Hz Since the typical frequency range of human hearing is between 20-20000Hz, will it be affecting the quality of movies or music with this config? will i be missing out the really low frequency sounds?? |

Gold Member Username: GavincummNew York USA Post Number: 1194 Registered: Feb-05 | usable frequency is commonly marked at -10db, which is much lower in level than the rest of the output. Even a tweeter would respond to aq 50hz wave(if it didn't damage it), but the level would be so low you wouldn't hear it. I usually take the useable bass measurements with a grain of salt. |

Gold Member Username: PetergalbraithRimouski, Quebec Canada Post Number: 1570 Registered: Feb-04 | Right, so consider it to be 35 Hz |

Gold Member Username: Jan_b_vigneDallas, TX Post Number: 8638 Registered: May-04 | Consider nothing! Get a test CD and find out for yourself. Room response and the general truthfulness of the manufacturer will make up for many inaccuracies in "specs". Particularly in the lowest octaves. Test it yourself, then you'll know for certain. |

Gold Member Username: PetergalbraithRimouski, Quebec Canada Post Number: 1576 Registered: Feb-04 | Right, so consider it to be 35 Hz as a guide prior to a purchse, unless you want to buy everything in sight just to test it for yourself. How's that? |

By knowing the depth of the unit, otherwise useless charts might have more meaning. And you might find an ideal placement at the same time. |
