Sphere Sonar Frequency Range Sensitivity

Ok, there has been a call for increasing the sensitivity of the sphere arrays and I intend the next version of the LWAMI Mod to have precisely this.

However, there are two ways to do this.

I can decrease the minimum frequency that they detect or I can decrease the ambient noise at the sensor surface (meaning a greater signal gain).

My preference on how to do this is based on the real-life parameters of the sensors, however there is no publically available data (on Google anyway) about this.

Does anyone know if the sphere sensors really only can detect high freqency and broadband signals? Or can the sphere sensors detect low frequence NB signals as well?

Please don't get yourself in trouble with the DOD in answering this question.
