This makes all the doors and windows rattle like an earthquake!


But if your speakers can't handle it, you will hear fart noises.

And the beginning of Edge of Tomorrow has some big sine waves.


Good cans/sub/amps *required*

It's hilarious listening to that on these cheap office speakers. Absolutely zero bass, it does not even register lmao. I was at least expecting plastic rattle.

They are most likely HPF'd.
This is like the subsonic filter button on a stereo.
It prevents that amplifier and speakers from getting frequencies they were not designed to reproduce in the first place.

A good "high fidelity" amp will have no such nonsense and essentially be able to amplify direct current. That type of arrangement is fun particularly if its power supply is gigantic! All you need is one of those silly large woofers used in a "bass car" and a solar cell and you can put it cone down on the floor and shine a flashlight on the solar cell which is attached to the amp input. The woofer will literally hop like a frog across the floor! If the woofer is a piece of shit, its voice coil former will typically launch through the dust cap with enough force to stick in the wallboard so you need to be careful there!
