There's a lot more bass in a 6.5" driver than most of you think


One topic of discussion I often see new audiophiles touch on is whether to get larger speakers for more bass.

I usually suggest they tune the room first, then re-evaluate. This is based on listening and measurement in several apartments I’ve lived in. Bigger speakers can be nothing but trouble if the room is not ready.


In particular, I often claim that the right room treatment can make smaller speakers behave much larger. So, to back up my claims I’d like to submit to you my recent blog post here:

Look at the bass response from those little drivers! :)


I admit for a lot of listeners these speakers won’t seem as punchy as you might like, but for an apartment dweller who does 50/50 music and theater they are ideal for me. If you’d like punchy, talk to Fritz who aligns his drivers with more oomf in the bass.

As you might surmise from my blog post, I make my claims based on measurements with OmniMic.

Yes, mics can "hear" under 20Hz and software can visualize the measurements.
How are "boomy" or "not boomy" infrasounds differently visualized
in magnitude curves?

I can answer this question technically, but before I do, it seems to me that you feel like you are qualified make statements about the quality of bass, and the depth of the bass but I can't??
Please answer technically. Anybody can make any statements on facts. I am not trying to be omniscient here, but prefer to separate facts from opinions.
