You're living in the 50's,...the human ear can hear all the way down to 3 hertz,...until recently we've only started making instruments that can actually make these frequencies loud enough for the human to hear below 20hz...Explosions,...thunderstorms,...and earthquakes...big trucks driving by,...big organ music...all produce frequencies down to 3 hz,..but the point is if a subwoofer can produce frequencies way below 20hz then it can produce 20hz and above that much easier without strain...and if you really do read specs....most amplifiers and receivers specs are 5hz to 100,000 hz now...especially digital receivers and amps...you don't change the crossovers from large to small,..you would blow most speakers in a short time...
“An engineer explained to us that hundreds of ear impressions were gathered in the name of research, and while each one obviously boasted its own unique shape and size, one single characteristic remained uniform across the board: the entrance into the ear canal is not a perfect circle, it's an oval.”
