My thought on this would be, if you can't hear the low frequencies
how would you know when to filter the low end?
The most pervasive human-made sound is usually motor and traffic
rumble, or wideband aircraft. So I always use a spectrum analyser to
see things I may not hear, even with a 12" 200 watt subwoofer (which
I keep on all the time, it is a flat equalized system...) that goes
way down low.
