An extract from Chapter 11 – Low Frequency and Transient Response Dilemmas – of Newell & Holland's book Loudspeakers For Music Recording And Reproduction:
The Great Low-Frequency Deception
‘Fantastic, true sounding bass: these small monitors tell you exactly what is on the recording’ – a statement typical of what you read in many advertisements, but it is often far from the truth. In fact it cannot be true says PHILIP NEWELL. At realistic monitoring levels, the low frequency response of small loudspeakers cannot be as accurate in terms of frequency response and transient response as a good large monitor system, flush-mounted in the front wall of a well-controlled room.
