so bass traps in corners do nothing, it seems we have been fooled. or are being fooled.

Below 60Hz is sub-bass? The lowest frequency produced by a standard 4-string bass (acoustic and electric; why do people insist on calling an electric bass a bass "guitar"? That’s an oxymoron!)---the E string played "open"---is 41Hz. That’s not sub-bass, that’s bass.

My Tennessee systems page has room responses before and after bass traps. Mine are huge because i had the space to bulk them up. That helped quite a bit. Most times we have little real estate to work with. 

If you think that's crazy, wait until I tell you that cables don't matter.
