The Compact's response is down 3 dB at 65 Hz. The response of both speaker systems extends well below the low E of a guitar (approximately 82 Hz).

Herb,
Frequency response numbers are meaningless, unless accompanied by further data, such as amplitude and distortion numbers. You have to listen to those speakers at "real world" levels, then determine if the speaker lives up to those specs.
