A new sub from PSB

[3db]

I'll never understand why PSB will not bring out a sub capable of below 20Hz capability.

No B+M brand is going to ever offer a sub like that, in order to get that kind of performance you have to have a large enclosure or a very good large driver, and they will never go for either. To be honest, there is arguably not enough sub 20 hz content to even justify it.

I can accept your 2nd arguement Shady but Axiom and Paradigm are two B&M vendors that have or had subs that go lower than 20 Hz.

What is deemed acceptable for a sub hitting 20hz? I'm sure most subs drop off pretty quicky went pushed that hard.... . Maybe PSB doesn't fudge the numbers or they know the limits for their subs....

PS: Not stirring the pot...fwiw?

Yes, there are exceptions but they are few with respect to the number of subs with no real subsonic performance. It was a generalization but not an absolute one. One notable exception is the Deftech Trinity, if I could have any B+M sub it would be that one. Also, is Axiom a B+M brand? I thought they were internet direct?

Yes Axiom is an internet company and has been for a while but I knew them before they became internet only.

I have found PSB tends to be conservative with there sub specs. It would not surprise me if that sub is flat to about 23-25hz.
