It was a full-range speaker in that there was no sub for it. It is
just that full range for broadcasts of the day wasn't expected to go
very low; no home had a system capable of dealing with that. It was
designed for a control room in a truck, and for that it worked very
well.
If you can't hear the fundamental on the lowest note on Jaco Pastorius'
bass, it's not a full-range speaker. If you can't hear his bass at ALL,
it's a "restricted LF" speaker.
If the tympani on Dorati's recording of Petrouchka bottom the drivers out
at well below normal listening level, it's not a full-range speaker, not
even a little bit.
