In this thread we found some nice speakersthat could do
that ;-)

Sad to say, the mouths of the horns are way undersized if an
unequalized F3 of 16 Hz or lower is desired.

How big would it have to be? 16 Hz wavelength approaches 69 feet.

Sadly, the 32' stop on this organ is electronic (even the 16' pipes had to
bend to fit under the ceiling). The sound is produced by a speaker in
about a 4 foot cabinet (with the whole organ chamber as a resonance
cavity). It has the advantage, however, of being tuned to produce just
those tones. Its distortion components are "part of the sound".
