Car Subwoofers

What does a car subwoofer do?

The car subwoofer is a low-frequency unit that enhances your car audio with deep, thumping bass. The subwoofer uses a large speaker with a sufficiently large enclosure to provide high-quality reproduction of low frequencies.

Why buy a car subwoofer?

Thanks to the car subwoofer, you will be able to enjoy powerful audio complemented by rich bass. It adds to the overall sound dynamics and enhances the overall reproduction quality. If you like fast and dynamic music genres such as rock, metal, or pop, rap, RnB, trance or techno, you will definitely feel the difference.

Key parameters when choosing a car subwoofer

Amplifier

The subwoofer generally needs to be linked to an amp if you want it to be connected to the car properly.

• If you have a 2-channel or 4-channel amplifier, try to get a 4-ohm single-coil subwoofer.
• In the case of a single-channel amplifier, a two-coil subwoofer with an impedance below 4 ohms will be enough.

In both cases, choose a product whose RMS power corresponds to approximately 80% of the amplifier's output.

Music genres

Different types of subwoofer enclosures are suitable for different genres. When choosing, you need to make sure that the subwoofer is adapted to the shape of the enclosure that best suits your musical taste.

• Closed enclosure is suitable for listening to fast and dynamic music such as rock, metal, house or trance.
• Bass reflex is a universal enclosure suitable for genres such as pop, RnB, rap and more.
• Bandpass is similar to a bass reflex enclosure, but achieves higher acoustic pressure and lower audio frequencies.
