50hz deep enough?


I am looking at getting some new speakers and I am leaning toward a few differently bookshelf's.

However some of them only go down to 50hz.

Is this deep enough for music only? I am not a bass junkie. I just want to be true to the music. I know that there is information in the music I will be missing. However with a speaker starting to drop off at 50hz will I still be able to follow the rhythm of a bass guitar and large drums?

With my current set up I get LOTS of bass. My speakers are rated 34Hz +/- 3dB. Once I added my line conditioner and rega planet I found my bass really took a step up. or a step deeper I should say. Thus why I am wondering if a smaller monitor my be acceptable.

If you deem 50 Hz not deep enough, what would you consider minimum to be enjoyable and due justice to the music. I listen to everything except for Rap and country. I like rock, bluegrass, jazz, classical, vocal etc.... even metal on occasion.

Cheers.

Thanks for all of your guys responses.

I do agree with what Key_metric and Mechans said. I would rather have good synergy and have beuatiful mids and good fast tight bass than the deepest flabby bass.

As far as stands go. I have a pair or Premier stands which are spiked and filled with dry compacted corse sand, when I give them the knuckle test all I get is a dull thud. My speaker cables are Audioquest Hyperlitz Midnights (and older model but they were about $400 USD in their time).

What would you guys say regarding my above post about the two sets of speakers I am considering?

50Hz low end and great mids
or
40 hz low end a little worse mids?

I should also add that this system also is used as a HT about 10% of the time. I sacrifice all in favor of the music. IE. Only my audio gear is plugged into my line conditioner. TV/VCR/DVD are feed from a computer APC backup to avoid adding noise into the unit. I really am all about the music.

Cheers.
Also I should add the generally I listen between 80-90dB and 90-100dB for classical.

I just try to keep it subjectively right. ie. If someone is singing I would like it be be the same level as they were actually in front of me and the same goes for instruments.

Only during classical music peaks would I ever dare to break 100dB, and I would do this once in a blue moon.

I should also add that this has all been mesured in C wieghting with favors the high frenquencies more.
I would buy the one with better midrange every time, especially for classical.
I should add the by far the music I listen to most is Rock. Whether it be hard or soft or acoustic.
I must chime in as someone who has always owned monitors...even in "larger" rooms(such as my current 20 x 16 room)...at any rate...the majority of listeners often have a speaker that is WAY bigger than needed in real room applications....part of this is due to dealers who often push larger speakers,etc...bottom line...even in my room...with my speakers well away from walls...I have a surprising amount of bass(especially on a well recorded cd with bass prominent material)...at my speakers are rated at 50hz...another consideration besides specs is the internal volume of your speaker...larger monitors often "behave" like they have much more bass than one would think...and if pushed...more than smaller floorstanders in some regards...
