The bass begins to roll off sharply around 40hz and is down -3db at 38hz and -6db at 34hz. In an appropriately sized room (which mine actually isn't for the Kanta 2), it could very well have enough gain to get down to 29hz, but it wouldn't be able to achieve the sense of pressure created by full range designs and remain clean with low distortion through the drivers audible band. There are a few musical genres where that does have a notable impact on the feel, so a lot if this does depend on room and musical tastes.
In comparison to the similarly priced Dynaudio Contour 60 (At least the US Price), the Danes chose a larger pair of drivers with greater cabinet volume to achieve the ability to produce those tones cleanly and keep the driver more composed through the remainder of its response. Focal had expressed in interviews that the baffle construction was in part to maintain cabinet volume all the while keeping the overall size in a specified range. Aesthetic value was a choice Focal made in this product and obviously the Danes weren't quite as concerned about the imposing size of their product. The issue I have with Contour 60 is how high that mid-tweeter arrangement stand in relative to a typical listener height. Maybe its due to them being one of the tallest nations on Earth.
I'm personally already used to having something that does dig a bit deeper down low. Would have to hear the Kanta to determine if it works for me, but from my experience, I've preferred a fuller range design.
