[QUOTE="Paul Johnson, post: 218090, member: 2643"] They quite a range, and a plus or minus figure, and then use this bit. It means some still have appreciable output lower than their figure, but perhaps a tiny bit less than the 3dB figure. The plotted graph is what you use to see what you will hear. Personally, I like a bottom end that gently tails off, not has a sharp cutoff. Volume is irrelevant the surge stays the same in good speakers quiet or loud, it’s your ears that perceive things differently. If you want to record drums then historically the old bigger is better does hold true. Big cones shift more air than small ones, so making 5” speakers that sound like a big kick is very hard =expensive. This is why so many people use subs for this. But subs seem more about overall energy down the bottom rather than accuracy. 30Hz is a big ask from small speakers. I suppose it just removes lots of good cheaper ones from the shopping list.
