- It is very possible to get extremely deep bass out of speakers which
- use drivers as small as 8 inches. I happen to own a pair which
- claims to be (nearly) flat down to 30 Hz, and the same company builds
- a model which covers clean down to 25 Hz. Both units employ dual
- eight inch drivers in rather large, vented enclosures.

- The maker I am refering to is Paradigm. I actually listened to their
- studio monitors (25-20k) with a test disc. They truly did provide
- clean, powerful tone down to at least 30 Hz. At these low frequencies,
- it is not so much the driver itself that is producing the sounds, it
- is the tuned port which is resonating at that frequency.

- These speakers you refer to- what model are they and how much do they cost?
