You can see it starts wandering off below 150hz. So you need that much boost just to make it down to 60hz.

I've been told lowest drums around 63hz, but think more content an octave above that, Bass guitar, but again the fundamental = 42hz yet 10db less than an octave above it (10db in bass seems 2-4 times quieter at less than 100db ranges). Lots of fake stuff do below 80hz, and morpheus knee drop in matrix 1 during the i know kung fu scene had strongest output on an rta of 60hz, and it goes whoomp, not smack.

I went fron small 2 ways to large 3 ways for home theater and the impact was way way better. Both were run on the small setting and the receiver rolled them off near 80hz.
