Aguilar DB 112 Cab

While browsing harmony-central news I took a look to the article about Aguilar DB112 cabinet. Then I checked the frequencies chart and figure out that you cannot have low-B with this cab… Then I checked specs of my Fender Rumble 100. Didn’t find frequency there at all… But because I can have low-B on it – looks like its low end response is at least 30Hz. Or this doesn’t mean anything?…
