I feel many on-list would have pretty impressive rigs. Especially rigs
which can reproduce unreally low bass, if people just let them. Mine
does, even if it's just a well damped stereo pair, of two closed
speakers, run at high power to counter the external MF/HF damping that I
happen to have.
In that vein, have you all listened to what the current list hits do
with their bass range? To my ear there is some funky stuff happening
there at least. I mean, take even Avril Lavigne's Skater Boi from a few
years back. The chorus is pure middle range, but at strategic points in
the song, you have *huge* bass loads, and even differential stereo ones.
That's no accident. It's being done on purpose, because when you first
grasp it, you can immediately tell that the other media are being
hindered S/N-wise by the bass overload. Nothing else is being sacrificed
in this way. And it's happening with pretty much everything on the R&B
chart right now.
Why? Especially why so that the low bass isn't being steered to the
middle, but is being processed in stereo? While pretty much nothing else
even in the lead vocals is?
