No! That's a mistake! Never use sine waves for deep basses because human ear constructs the base frequency by the upper harmonics. Use triangles instead. If you have a very deep sine wave you won't hear the tone at all, you just feel it. But if you have a very deep triangle wave you'll hear the rumble and can determine the frequency.
