Quite true. A good car stereo can do a very good job of demonstrating the effect of good bass. Turn the subwoofers down (covering up to 100 or 150 Hz) and several $K stereo can sound about a shallow as an AM transistor radio - maybe more clear, maybe louder, but just as "small". Good full bass just seems to transform the whole package. I believe it is much the same with a piano.

'Course, a dy-no-mite subwoofer coupled to a 9V 1962 transistor radio ain't a-gonner impress anyone either! A complete sound requires a complete package.
