What you can say about lowbass and midbass perfomance for high end loudspeakers ?


i listen Egglestonworks Viginty  and find out the play increadable bass performance , especially punch bass
The company claim the two 10" woofer working as  passive sub with cross point 100Hz, and 2  6" midwoofer is
responsible for midbass get very good punch bass,  They say to produce good bass the need to split bass, becouse  
low base woofers get big moving mass cone , and work poor for punch work (too heavy )  Do anybody agree?
But this issue can be find in big speakers with 10"-12"woofer, For small floorstander is not applicable

The idea of small woofers being "faster" is a myth.

What happens is more complicated and involves room acoustics as well.

Having said that, there are many speakers with dual 6" to 10" woofers which perform very very well in a room. See my threads on 2.5 way speakers.

IOW, I agree with the approach, but the explanation is an urban legend which hides a series of more complicated issues. 

Best,
