I cannot thank enough the person here ( i dont remember who) who recommended to use this small organ interpretation of the Bach Klavier which is truly astounding :

Why not the piano as a reference for bass
I see a lot of commentary/reviews on a systems bass response that all seem to hinge on the 41 hz double bass and such range. At 27.5 the A0 note on a piano seems a better point to judge. Lots of piano in normal music vs say an organ note. I know when I feel that deep chord played it is one of things I enjoy about listening the most! Was listening to Wish you were here live and the piano was sublime.
So is it more of how much musical energy is perceived in the 40 hz range or what that makes this more of a reproduction benchmark?
I welcome your input!
New Joe Bonamassa out BTW!

An infrasonic square wave, and in fact any square wave, theoretically contains every higher harmonic right up to infinity. As such every driver in a conventional dynamic speaker will contribute, and the tweeter in principle will be fed infinite power. Fortunately, the slew rate of any real-world amplifier is not infinitely fast. My favourite digital format, Direct Stream Digital, cannot even represent a square wave, any more than a vinyl groove can. I cannot think of any natural phenomenon that produces a true square wave. |
@timstella Even Yamaha only claims that their Clavinovas approach the sound quality of the best concert grand pianos.
On the other hand, they have all the benefits of digital including being affordable enough and small enough for home use |
