http://www.getdarker.com/articles/Is_Bass_Good_For_You?/
Me and Coki found out that it’s possible to make people throw up at around 6.3 htz – I don’t know what size cone you’d need to go that low. That’s low, low, low. Music is powerful, sound is powerful.
You cannot defeat the internet - and everyone LOVES a GingerBreadMan or two!
I still need those PM's. When are you going to give them to me?

seems like a bit of a waste of headroom putting frequencies onto a tune when they wont be reproduced, or not in the way the producer intended anyway. there are hardly any systems capable of going that low, lots of driver flapping, but no real output.
bang on, hardly any systems go down that low - I've heard LABs go pretty fuckin low though, 25-30hz ish, and the Trigger crew from Brum have one of those F1 double infrahorns which was pretty sick, although I only heard a few tunes that really exploited it. When it was kicking in though, it was unreal, real fucking mad unnatural bass.
frankly though, if anyone's playing off vinyl/dubplate it would be useless anyway - you can't cut frequencies that low cos of the limitations of the groove/needle - any mastering engineer cutting dubs/masters would roll off the music below about 50hz, if the producer hadn't already done so...

So does that mean that all my dubstep tunes I have on wax go down to around 50Hz?
