It's even worse than that because it's not a single frequency. The graph below shows a response typical of small rooms. Note the peak/dip pair at 110 and 122 Hz where the response varies a staggering 32 dB across a range smaller than one musical whole step. This is what folks in small rooms are really up against. Worse, the peaks and nulls change as you move around the room. Even if you move only a few inches.
