Yes, there is no question that these frequencies are normally inaudible, but the articles linked to suggest that they still affect us. Who knows if there is any effect at the typical small and/or attenuated levels in most recorded music. Do you know where the high pass filter is usually set in the mixing/mastering process?
I have owned amplifiers in the past that had switchable high pass filters to prevent any extreme low frequencies causing problems in the speakers.
