It's very technical, but for those who know how to fine tune, it's worth reading and bookmarking.http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=37509
- Rumble extends up to about 20hz for L+R, and 34-50hz for L-R.
- The actual audio signal extends down to 20hz for L+r and possibly as low as 40hz, and definitely at least 70hz, for L-R. This contradicts some people's statements that bass is summed below 140hz.
- There are 0.55hz (or 33.3 rpm) harmonics extending fairly well into audio frequencies, although they may be too small to be worth filtering out. These harmonics exist in both L+R and L-R channels.

He should have posted some graphs though.
