What happens to notes below a subs frequency response?

[QUOTE="shizzzon, post: 8276062, member: 590338"] What? A crossover point is not a wall or barrier to the frequency response. It is a roll off. We used to run subsonics up into the 50s and still drop into the 30s fine because we would run close to 10kw per sub. Notes too low that the sub doesn't hit clearly will cause coil to heat up faster due to distortion? WHAT? IF it's too low and not clear, the subsonic filter is in play. How can HEAT be a stress factor if the x-over has attenuated, at this point, most of the potential output? And do you know how hard it is to hear distortion from a subwoofer? exceeding linear values of a sub is easy to hear but not distortion and if your point is more of a failure potential than audible one, no because the signal is too heavily attentuated. IF someone's SSF was set too low, then it could heat up quicker but that statement goes with ANY frequency range, not just below tuning. [/QUOTE]
