deep-throated

Rich and bass

Deep-throated describes sounds that are low, full, and resonant, as if produced from deep in the throat or chest: a deep-throated growl, the deep-throated rumble of thunder.

The word suggests power and richness of tone.

It also describes the source of such sounds: a deep-throated foghorn, deep-throated hounds baying in the distance.
