How to choose acoustics in a car?

The most usual acoustics are created only for the sound "background" in the car. If the motorist listens only to the radio, then why overpay? It will be enough ordinary broadband speakers. The frequency range that they reproduce, of course, will not bring high frequencies and deep bass, but will not be annoying either.

Coaxial acoustics

The simplest and cheapest option is to buy coaxial acoustics. The design of such acoustics provides, in fact, several speakers. The range that the device plays back is divided into areas. Each region loses its own speaker.

"Separators" of the signal are specialized filters, which are called crossovers. What type of crossover is used — it depends on the model. At more expensive models the crossover can be a separate case, and in models it is cheaper sometimes simply bypassed by the usual condenser (the simplest filter) on the case of a speaker.

Among coaxial acoustics, we recommend that you pay attention to the Ground Zero brand. If you buy coaxial acoustics, then only good. The real German quality will not leave anyone indifferent, and pure sound can compete with acoustics more expensively. Especially popular is the model GZRF 65AL . The external design of the speakers is elegant and laconic, and the design from German engineers is developed at the highest level. It's almost impossible to run into a defective device from Ground Zero. The two-way 165-millimeter speaker is capable of playing the frequency range from 50 to 25000 Hz. Excellent cope with both low and high frequencies. The device is capable of operating at maximum power up to 140 W (rated power — 100 W). Such characteristics are quite worthy of attention. That's why we recommend to consider this model, as well as other models of coaxial acoustics Ground Zero. Looking for car acoustics? You can buy in Kiev, Odessa, Kharkov on 130.com.ua.

Component Acoustics

The next option is component acoustics, which is most common among car enthusiasts who are not indifferent to the sound in the car.

The frequency reproduction range, as well as the coaxial acoustics, is divided into several parts. There are crossovers, but the dynamics are not made in a single design, but by separate components that do not interfere with each other (high-frequency dynamics do not interfere with the propagation of low-frequency waves). Component acoustics have one small disadvantage — the quality of its sound depends on the correct arrangement of the components of the speaker system. If you arrange the components randomly, then a high level of sound can not be achieved.

For high-quality sound, speakers should be placed as close as possible to each other. This is especially true for medium- and high-frequency speakers in a three-way system. A great role in creating a sound stage is played by a high-frequency speaker. Due to its small size, it can be positioned anywhere and if you choose the right position, it will seem that the acoustics are on top. Coaxial acoustics will not give such an effect, and the sound will not be the same. On the other hand, it's easier to install, but if you need to get a really good sound, we recommend you still buy component acoustics.

Everyone who, though at least slightly understands in auto sound, knows that the component acoustics of Hertz is considered one of the best in the world and rightly deserves an honorable place in the car of a true lover of quality sound. In the range of Hertz you can find acoustics for every taste and purse. It is worth mentioning especially the model ESK 165L.5 , which , despite its inexpensive cost, is able to surprise anyone. This speaker system is equipped with two-component low-frequency and mid-range speakers. The register has an oblong shape and translates the sound absolutely without distortion and interference. The sound will especially please the bass lovers. The speakers can deliver up to 300 watts (nominal power — 100 watts) and provide crystal clear sound, even at maximum volume. The frequency range of the device is from 50 to 23000 Hz. The tweeters that come with the kit have a half-wave suspension and a diffractive sound scatterer. This makes it possible to significantly expand the angle of sound emission.

Subwoofer or speakers 6x9?

In order to reproduce low frequencies, you need to buy speakers that have a large area of the diffuser. In order to reproduce bass frequencies, installing speakers measuring 16 centimeters ahead will be better than 13. In truth, the reproduction of the lowest frequencies can not be achieved. The best option is to buy a subwoofer that will perfectly complement the "bottoms."

In principle, you can do well without a subwoofer. An alternative to this is the 6x9 inch speakers, which are quite good at bass. It is clear that it is not necessary to require loud and low sound from the oval speakers at the same time, since there is a subwoofer for low frequencies. As for the oval speakers, they are universal and capable of reproducing the entire musical range, from the highest to the lowest frequencies. In order to select oval speakers, you do not need to chase a large number of bands. Normal sound can provide two-way or three-way speakers.

What to choose, a subwoofer or oval speakers, it's up to everyone individually.

As for the manufacturer of "ovals", in our opinion, the ideal model is the JBL Stage 9603E. A three-way speaker system from the United States can ideally provide clear and powerful low-end (which, in principle, I want to get from such speakers). In addition, the speakers reproduce high frequencies rather well, since they operate in the range of 45-20000 Hz with a maximum power of 210 watts. The speakers are suitable for connecting directly to the car stereo. Even such a connection option is capable of providing perfectly clean and surround sound at maximum volume.

If it was decided to buy a subwoofer, the most ideal option would be to choose the Hertz MP 250 D4.3 Pro. The device produces up to 1200 watts (rated power is 600 watts). The sensitivity of the speaker is 84 dB of resistance 4 Ω. The subwoofer fulfills its money 100% and, in the opinion of the majority of buyers, even more. The 250 mm speaker provides the ability to create a unique enclosure of any shape and size, unlike case subwoofers, the fate of which was predetermined by the manufacturer.
