I've got an ancient pair of ex BBC LS 5/1As in the cellar firing up
through grilles as subs. 'Flat' down to 28 Hz, IIRC.
Wonder what frequency the new organ goes down to?

Well, the double open diapason on the pedal organ is 32', whatever
that comes out at.

I'm thinking about 16Hz for the diapason.

The interval item on the organ renovation mentioned 64' pipes. I didn't
quite feel the earth move but it did sound jolly good to me.
Oh and I never realised before that "The Planets" contains a forearm cluster
on the organ (ooh err missus).

Or that Henry Wood could have made such a cods of "improving" toccata

No it didn't - he played a top G on (I think) the smallest pipe and bottom C
on a 32ft diapason - 32ft being the biggest pipe on any organ - honking at
16Hz. At that frequency you feel it, not hear it and not even DAB will pass
frequencies as low as that!
