There is little doubt that anything will improve a car or truck’s sound system more then adding a good quality car audio subwoofer. Of course to produce great sound, you have to select the correct subwoofer for your specific system. The shopper really has to spend some time doing research and deciding exactly what type of sound he wants to create.
The shopper first should decide upon what size subwoofer he wants to install. In the case of subwoofers, size can make a world of difference for several reasons. While car audio subwoofers are available today in sizes from six to fifth teen inches in diameter, shoppers are sometimes surprised at the volume produced by even the smallest of subs. Nothing will effect the subwoofer’s performance more then matching it to the correct enclosure.
Available space usually dictates the size sub box that can be installed. I would first suggest considering a custom subwoofer enclosure for your vehicle if one is available. A custom-fit subwoofer enclosure is a sub box that has been made to fit in an “out of the way” location and usually results in a factory look when installed.
The alternative to a custom box is a standard truck subwoofer box. Your choice of sealed or ported will be governed by the specifics of the subwoofer you select. The easiest way to shop for a universal subwoofer enclosure is to check your box measurements. A ported enclosure will always require more air space then a sealed box of similar subwoofer size. So measure your install area first, match a subwoofer that you like to the boxes volume or air space.
The final step in adding a subwoofer is to match it to a good subwoofer amplifier. Again you have to check your subwoofer’s spec sheet to determine the proper power requirements. This all might sound like a lot of work but the results are well worth the effort. As you might guess, there are several variables in the selection process that I can’t discuss here.
