My JBL 4319s "only" go down to 40Hz and I get great bass. Not many instruments play lower than that anyway. Also, having a small/medium sized room makes up for any deep bass I may imagine is down there.
As for the "feel" one gets when those notes are struck, I get that feeling in the room up into the mids, depending on the instrument or type of music. I can definitely feel it in my body.
I just had someone over to listen to a pair of smallish monitors I had for sale and when I played some jazz with a great bass into, he asked if I were playing the JBLs. That bass was coming out of a 6" ceramic Accuton driver. He couldn't believe it. He bought the pair.
I never understood the need for "great" bass since when everything else is dialed in correctly, "really good" bass is all I ever needed.
All the best,
Nonoise
