World's Deepest Voice

Something kinda interesting I found while looking through the Bag End web site.

http://www.bagend.com/nofeedback.htm

From the Bag End web site:

Your subs ROCK! I had a chance to hear (feel) your subs a few years ago. Needless to say, I was extremely impressed. Ok, I wet my pants. Your subs are the smoothest, beefiest, most thunderous subs I have ever heard, and I'm not even talking about the ELF series. I can only imagine how the ELF subs sound. Unfortunately, I have not been in a situation where I can use your subs on a regular basis. I am confident this will change very soon.

I have been hearing about the ELF subs. 8 Hz, WOW!! No other company has ever accomplished this before. For as long as I can remember, I have wanted subs that can accurately reproduce the frequencies that I sing. Oh yeah, I'm a bass singer. Most bass singers don't need subs that produce frequencies below 20 Hz. I am a bass singer who could use subs that produce frequencies down to 8 Hz. Stop laughing, and let me explain. A little over a year ago, I broke the Guinness World Record for the lowest note produced by the human voice. With my voice, I can produce 8 Hz at about 46db. The previous record was 16.45 Hz. I beat that record by more than an octave. Guinness World Records just recently certified my record at 8 Hz. So, your subs can do 8 Hz; I can do 8 Hz; sounds like the start of a beautiful relationship! I hope I will soon be able to test your ELF subs. I can not wait any longer. I must have ELF subs.

I can only imagine how amazing they sound and feel.Thank you for your research and dedication to perfect sound.

Tim Storms, By vibrating his vocal cords at 8 Hz, Storms set a Guinness World Record for the lowest note produced by a human. His record was certified in January 2002. This note is below the range of a human's hearing ability, two octaves below the lowest B on a piano. Storms also holds the Guinness World Record for the widest vocal range for a male. His records have been published in the Guinness World Records 2006. Storms currently resides in Branson, Missouri, with his wife Angie and daughter Emma.
Storms now performs with the previous holder of the record for the lowest bass note, Dan Britton. Britton is a managing partner of Pierce Arrow Theater as well as a performer, and had held the record for 20 years

Pretty cool!

And here I was thinking that the world's lowest voice belonged to Tay Zonday.

I'd sure like to hear him in a more avant garde ensemble.

Not entirely true. In 1983 Guiness recognized J.D. Sumner of the Stamps quartet as the lowest note ever recorded. So, there's no way Britton held the record for 20 years until 02'

I have been to the Peirce Arrow and heard Britton and Storms perform, quite an amazing show, although it dosen't get the recognition it deserves.
