o Subwoofers usually can produce content below even a very capable full-range

o A subwoofer is usually better able to produce the lowest frequencies at a level
higher than a full-range speaker with less audible distortion
o If no bass management is used, the subwoofer will produce no output when the
system is in 2 channel mode.
