Cleeds, since when is a resonance point a "brick wall" situation. The resonance peaks then rolls off. If your woofers do not move at all visibly and you are playing vinyl either your woofers do not go down very low or your cartridge is too stiff for your tonearm and your bass is rolling off prematurely. I suppose you could also be listening at the volume of a mouse squeak. I would never use an analog filter. It would damage the bass too much but digital is a whole other world. I could survive without it but volumes with certain records would have to be limited and It might rob enough power to affect the room control function. There are no downsides to a digital filter up to 80 dB/oct. With a 3 dB down point at 18 Hz the effect is totally inaudible.
The problem Cleeds is that the source is vinyl, a medium that is imperfect at best. So, treating it at it's source means not playing records.
