It means that your speakers cannot handle frequencies that low.
My speakers do the same as yours. I have the Harmon Kardon Creature II series. The woofer looks like Darth Vaders helmet.

Are they not JBL speakers?
My sub looks like Darth Vader's head, and they're JBL speakers.

Most speakers' responses
drop off dramatically below about 50Hz, as does the sensitivity of your ears. I listened on my studio monitors and there wasn't much discernible after much more than a minute.
I suspect the sort of data compression applied to Youtube soundtracks may bugger things up a bit, too.

With a decent set of speakers you might not hear it
But you can feel the bass can you not? Which reminds me of the bass speaker and cornflour and water video.

Heh,
I wasn't about to risk my speakers by cranking up the amps on some unknown test file :)

You need a set of these fuckers:
www.meyersound.com/products/concertseries/700hp/
We got them at work. 28 - 150Hz at a pretty hefty 2250 watts. Amazingly light for the size and function of the box as well, a nice change for Meyer who make a great sound and then add shitloads of weight...
