After the response from the power capacitor article, there have been many requests for an article on speakers and which ones are the best to have as well as how to choose the speakers for your ideal car audio system. So if you want to know the basics behind creating a car audio system so great that it almost feels as if Linkin Park are rocking out in your back seats while Jay Z is sitting next to you telling you about his 99 problems, then you'll want to give this a read... just my 2 Cent ...
Speaker
Speakers (drivers) are an essential part of car audio systems. The user assumes the reproduction of sound from electrical to hear. They work by vibrating the air around the speakers when an electric current passes through them. Therefore it is important to choose the best speakers your budget allows. This is the end you feel that you feel that you were in a live concert hall, singing live with the artist next to you actually!
TypesSpeaker
There are usually four types of car audio speaker set-up. For the lower end of the spectrum, sub-woofers and mid-woofers are used in the mid-range sound make the mid-range shot during the high-end tweeters is reprinted with. There are also speakers such as the 6x9 is capable of a wider range of sounds that a low frequency drivers on their own, as well as the design and manufacture of loudspeakers depends on the expectedto use.
Tweeter
Tweeters are used to play the high part of the sound spectrum. Due to the nature of the speaker, either inline or a crossover capacitor used to filter the sound, to ensure that only the frequencies that the tweeter designed to reproduce the tweeter to be sent. The crossover can also reduce damage to the tweeter, and to support increasing the efficiency of the speaker. With my car, I'm looking for a split pair of JBL GTO-18T tweeters installed the rundirectly of the head unit. This is purely to aid my pursuit to produce a special sound in the car as opposed to just sound coming directly from the speakers.
Midrange speaker
The midrange is a vital part of a car audio system. It is in theory possible to run a car audio system solely of midrange speakers however for someone wishing to recreate sound at a high level, it is unheard of. The midrange speakers come in a variety of sizes to fit the different door panels. Unlike subwoofers For example, mid-bass are able to directly execute the main unit is often seen, however, that if the main unit lights up too high, you hear distortion (clipping) are. This is why many people add an amplifier to amplify the signal to the woofer so that at high volume for a clearer signal is sent to the speakers amplify choose. Still others choose to use a system of crossed, certain frequencies through the midrange speakers are playing. There are twoTypes of mid-range speakers, and coaxial components. The difference between coaxial and component design. With a pair of component speakers separate tweeters, while the main driver is a coaxial speaker, the design of an all-in-one nature. The difference lies in the type of sound produced. The coaxial speakers are all in one, the sound from a single location, but with component speakers, the tweeter is separate so you can get a spatial sound. Because ofThe advantages offered by a number of components speakers in my car I chose to use a pair of JBL component to act as "front speakers" and a pair of JBL coax as "rear speakers" even though they are both installed on the door. The reason for this is that my car from the factory has only two speakers, one for each port. This left me with the problem, as I wanted to get a spatial sound. Go through this, ideally, I needed to have a couple moreSpeakers as the speaker "rear". For this reason I decided to use a series of coaxial speakers for the rear speakers and speaker components for a number of "front" speakers. The idea would be to a surround sound system out of reach, while inside the car, and the conditions I had to work with success, I'm pretty happy with the participation of the whole system.
Mid-Bass
Mid-woofer produces frequencies between the subwoofer and the mid-bass. Some people claimthat are not part of a system, while others swear by them. For some simple systems in the mid-woofer is an important tool, if someone in order to obtain clarity on volume, because once again, is the separation of the spectrum would be even more on the individual components so that the faithful shall be exalted . For my project I decided against the use of mid-woofer spacing births only friend from my car project.
Subwoofer
Subwoofers are available in a variety of formatsRule 8, 10, 12, 15 and 18 inches. They are used to generate the low frequencies. Almost all subwoofers because of their greater demand for high performance, but a couple of head unit and subwoofer from Pioneer will be able to cooperate, without the use of an amplifier. Some need a subwoofer that can be a closed box or reflex subwoofer as some free-to-air, that will work without the use of an accommodation, and how they consume on average more power subwooferas a subwoofer output equivalent sound that requires the use of a case. Subs free-to-air have been commented by many people that it is this kind of bass that is not produced, the same standard or quality, although they will tell you the same performance evaluated. There are also boxes active low, the amplifier, subwoofer and all integrated housing in a single unit, but are, on average, tend to a lower power than, for example, a separate sub / amp combination to have. This isSo many people will choose a subwoofer enclosure. The presence of a port that corresponds to the product type bass. With a port, many people find that it produces more bass (as the air moves through the subwoofer is a given port, but there is less definition in relation to the sound. With a sealed container, but the bass is more than prepared as the first sound of the bass the air inside the box moves, however, the use of a closed housing and greater emphasison the subwoofer, built by the pressure levels inside the enclosure.
While some research for my case, I discovered that the size of the case makes a huge difference. After selecting the kicker L7, I had two choices for my system is a sealed box, which would be very small (which would be useful to save space) or if I wanted to use a bass reflex, then the size would be much greater and the 'effect of low levels of pressure would be greater thanwas inside the cars are built with a slot-ventilated enclosure, which is why I chose the bass reflex cabinet.
Performance Information
To determine the performance information, which is held in the power of each component in a position for continuous operation and up. For example, a speaker with an output of 45W RMS, 135W MAX. The RMS is given the maximum continuous power that can pass without damaging the components and the max is, how much power the component can handle for a short periodIt is therefore important to ensure that the components are not supplied with too much power. Most of the unit head are capable of 50Wx4 max on average, but some amplifiers are capable of producing up to 50Wx4 RMS. For my set-up I went for a system that would be able to output 50Wx4 RMS. I heard that this is sufficient in a small amplifier and the midrange punch me, I wanted result.
Other speakers
Traditionally, the speakers are available in round shapes. However, there areSpeakers in different shapes and sizes. For example, recently have companies like Sony and kicker subwoofer, which vary in size around the traditional subwoofers are released. There is also an elongated speakers such as the popular 6x9 and 4x6, 5x7 and 6x8.
And 'known as a super tweeter, tweeter. They are comparable with tweeters in the sense that it is high frequencies, however, can produce frequencies that produce the addition of himself,conventional tweeters. Bullet tweeters are a kind of super-tweeter. Bullet tweeters are called by their names. As a rule, by an in-line filter capacitor, when a signal connected to work. Some people choose to use piezoelectric tweeters in their cars alongside the conventional tweeters. The piezoelectric tweeter, tweeter as the ball known as a super-tweeter and were chosen for their high performance and durability. The piezo tweeter does not require anything to limitfrequency component from the way they are produced, their high impedance acts as a filter to be delivered. Some people find, however, that the sound they produce is not very high quality, but I'm still testing, a pair of piezo tweeter in my system, but is added later to install one of me.
Completion
At the end of the day, it is important to note that if you are searching for this full-bodied sound that you make sure that the systemis able to reproduce the full spectrum of sound that includes a subwoofer for bass of some kind, usually many people bypass the middle-and low-midrange driver and tweeter, which will be sufficient to produce a full sound. Personally I have a pair of coaxial and component woofers, tweeters and a pair of ballet, a kicker L7 for the final result is not sufficient to put a smile on my face every time!
I hope this was helpful.
