Car articles - subwoofers

Acoustic systems are not capable of reproducing qualitatively low frequencies. With these tasks can handle a subwoofer. With this device you can give the usual melodies of new sound. Before choosing a subwoofer, you need to evaluate the quality of your speaker system: it must be powerful and have a good bass.

First you need to decide on the type of construction:

Active: includes a built-in sound amplifier and an active crossover. The latter is designed to adjust the frequency. The amplifier can have a linear or through connection. Such devices often have additional functions that allow you to adjust the sound as precisely as possible.

Passive: does not have an amplifier, so it connects to the main acoustics. In connection with the fact that such devices do not provide for the possibility of sound adjustment, the requirements for installing a subwoofer are increased.

Of course, it is better to give preference to the first option, but if you have a limited budget, then a passive subwoofer can cope with its tasks no worse.

Case subwoofers are divided into the following types:

Box with a speaker: this design does not get air. It features compactness, a clear bass.

Fazoinvertor: this design includes air. The most practical and affordable option.

Band-pass box: the choice of real connoisseurs of quality sound. The speakers are inside, and the sound comes out with a special hole.

The choice of open-type subwoofers is an ideal option for beginners, who previously did not attach importance to sound quality. Such designs are open speakers that are mounted in car panels.

The power of the device is one of the most important parameters when choosing. For a good sound, you will need 150-250 watts. Everything above is for real connoisseurs of sound. Pay attention to the nominal value - this is the parameter at which music will be played without any distortion.
