Is There any Effect of Adding a Subwoofer to the Car Audio System?

Many car owners now have many misunderstandings about bass, thinking that loud and shocking sound is a good sound. Some car owners also think that installing a subwoofer is for listening to “disco and rock”, and that a subwoofer is not needed for listening to other music. This is why many car owners who have tried to listen to music with the original car audio system always feel that the music is too thin, as if something is missing.

In fact, the bass effect is often weakened by tire noise caused by the friction between the tire and the road, engine running noise, wind shear caused by the collision between the car body and the air, etc. Installing a suitable high-performance subwoofer and improving the bass area can make the music fuller and make people hear it more clearly.

The role of the subwoofer can be summarized in the following three points:

1. It can make the music sound more passionate and powerful.

2. It can create an infectious music atmosphere.

3. The existence of the subwoofer can “shield” the low-frequency noise when the car is driving.

Only with a dedicated subwoofer can the music maintain a natural tone to balance the sound field, sounding deeper, wider, fuller and with clearer and purer sound quality. The size of the subwoofer is mostly 8 inches, 10 inches, 12 inches, etc. You can choose a subwoofer according to your favorite music style.

If you value the quality of your music, choose a sealed bass box. This type of bass box is characterized by easy control of the sound and good sound quality, but it has lower efficiency.

If you like to listen to the “street blasting” style, you can choose a subwoofer with a box. The characteristics of this box are loud volume, suitable for sound pressure competition, and high efficiency. However, the volume and size of the subwoofer are relatively strict, and there are certain requirements for the diameter and length of the air duct.
