Actually the first subs were designed for [ and got their name from] subsonic frequencies. In a perfect situation they really should only be amplifying fequencies below what the human ear can hear. They are the frequencies you feel like a kick drum beat or thunder in a storm. Most original uses were in theaters and home theater application to give you a more realistic feel with things like explosions, thunder etc. They raise heck with bass guitars ect and have a tendency to make the lows sound muddy. Loud yes, but usually muddy. That being said I understand what it's like to be young. Most music that is recorded and mixed for systems with a sub-woofer is created for a generation much younger than mine. That is cool,one day you'll grow old and there will be something new that kids of the future will dig and you will think they are crazy.
It's times way of playing tricks on us. Enjoy your new car and stereo, sub and all!!!!!
