A 42 Hz bass note

45.26.128.222

If that is "fast", does it mean it is reproduced as 45 Hz or 50 hz?

I agree. While fast is a term frequently associated with bass reproduction, isn't really rise time what is critical for accurate reproduction? That is, no or minimal overhang. Which Maggies and some electrostatics can do.

My thoughts exactly! :-))

But also "fall time", as DrC posted. IE. the driver can stop quickly ... with no overhang.

For these, you need drivers with little inertia.

probably not rise time, but fall time - DrChaos 13:35:31 11/12/21 (0)
I take 'fast bass' as one which stops quickly when it is supposed to.

Good 'rise time' means a good midrange & tweeter integration with the woofer.
