Low volume kind to low frequency?

Hi all.

I am interested in buying some Magnepan 20.1 speakers. They go down to 25 Hz, which is fine, but not great. Spatial cues, pipe organs.

I tend not to listen to music at outrageously loud volumes. Is the main factor with the bottom end of the frequency specification moving a lot of air? Does the fact that at medium volumes, not as much air has to be moved, matter?

Can I listen to my pipe organ at a volume that doesn't tenderize meat?

Regards,

Rick

Thanks, men. So you are saying, yes, it is easier to play bass at low volume, but my ear needs higher volume to hear those frequencies. My "play it at a low volume" approach won't work.

I am reluctant to try to blend a cone subwoofer with a planar main speaker, but I may be driven to it.

Regards,

Rick
