I see these terms used a lot in subwoofer comparisons and analysis. But I think of a sub's performance from ~15Hz > ~200Hz.
With a widely used crossover of 80Hz, the range is ~15Hz > ~160Hz.
LFE is defined as 3-120Hz.
So we have a speaker, usually with a single driver, and about a 200Hz range.
In a regular speaker, I think the woofer has a much wider range.
Why do we have to split the relatively small 200Hz range into even smaller segments like "mid" and "deep"?
It seems strange we can talk about 50-20kHz in a $100 speaker, yet need to split characteristics of a $1k speaker into frequency ranges so narrow.
