Default Listed Specifications for Guitar Speaker Frequency Range

When viewing general specifications for guitar speakers, the frequency response curve often displays a larger frequency range than what's listed under the "Frequency Range". If the listed frequency range is 70-5000Hz, yet the frequency response curve shows activity below 70 Hz, is the speaker audibly reproducing the extended lower range in the plot? If so, what is the listed "Frequency Range" actually denoting?


Guitar speakers don't reproduce guitar sounds, they produce them. So
don't even think about curves, you need to listen to the speaker as an
integral part of the guitar - which comprises the guitar itself, plus
cables, pedals, amp and speakers. That is the only meaningful
information you can get about a guitar speaker.
