[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8538293, member: 614752"] Tune higher and get a line driver or use a lot more gain. Most of those older recordings were just light on the low frequency mix because the loudspeakers back in those days just wouldn't hang with what we're doing today. Also low E on a bass guitar is 40hz. If you plan to listen to actual music there's little need to tune lower because critical frequencies for actual music (played on instruments) will typically suffer. I use a few Skrillex CDs for playing loud and there's not even much in those below 40hz, there's little to nothing that 40hz tuning wouldn't control the cone for. [/QUOTE]
