The reviewer's general comments about really deep and clean bass caught my attention in this review.

"It is easy to get lulled into thinking that the usual 35-40 Hz home theater schlock-boxes give you sub bass because so many of them peter out at 35-40 Hz regardless of specs. But when you hear a sub with legitimate sub-20 Hz bass, you won't forget it."
"Although the Quads are supposedly rated down to 30 Hz, the '1220s made it perfectly clear that there was a lot of low level information that was not otherwise ever being close to being reproduced."
"As for specific musical examples, the most dramatic example of the '1220's performance was on Enya's "Longships" from Watermark [Reprise 9 26774-2]. I had heard about there being deep bass on this track and had listened to it many times, but through my supposedly 25 Hz-capable Paradigm PS1000 subwoofer, I had never before heard these powerful bass notes."
