I´ve seen Unicorns. I´ve heard Unicorns ;-)

Do you mean it is not mathematically possible? I´m interested in a
practical implementation. Maybe distorting the signal applying the
inverse of a Chebishev polynomial (but this adds lots of DC and other
unwanted components), maybe with a sort of FFT resynthesis or simply as
a psichoacustic effect, by generating harmonics of the low frequencies
to reinforce their presence.
