 Even if the equipment has the potential to deliver such tones the room has to be able to accommodate the tone as well. Do you know the length of the wave produced with a 20 Hz tone? A 16 Hz tone has a wavelength of 72 feet! |
I've heard this before but if that is the case, there would be nothing below about 200hz listening to headphones and we all know that isn't true. My advice, go for the sub. The added extension and output will be nice and your mains will be happy when they don't have to strain as hard (read - less distortion) reproducing bass.
