You can't repeal the laws of physics, but it you're really smart you can sometimes bend them a little. The folks at Velodyne must be really really smart, because they've managed to bend really long bass wavelengths into a tiny (less than a cubic foot) box. Even they couldn't repeal the rules, so there are a couple of trade-offs with the HGS-10 that keep it from being the best choice for everybody--but in the right application this is one sweet little sub.
