Is tight bass dependent on speaker efficiency?

I prefer dry vs warm or fat. I boost below 70 hz up to 5 dB leaving 70 to 140 at 1dB or 2dB down. You could say I am boosting what you feel relative to what you hear. I think my version of "dry" bass is what people interpret as "tight". 70 to 140 Hz are the "warm" or "fat" frequencies. This is an example of why high resolution room correction is such a great teacher. In playing around with a system's frequency response you learn what various modifications do to affect the sound. On top of this you have distortions created by the woofer and enclosure which can not be corrected such as port noise.
