Something else to check is the grille of the woofer. If it is cracked or broken it should be replaced as well. This can be a tough one to test because the old grille was the only thing it took to detect the presence of damage, and you will need to put the new grille on to be sure. You can always have your subwoofer installed professionally and there will be no need to look any further than the pictures on the box to make sure that you are getting the right subwoofer. However, for many people this is a little bit trickier as they may be getting a subwoofer which they actually do not need.
If you have an idea as to what you want to use your subwoofer for and have an idea of what type of music you would like to listen to, this is the best way to know when a subwoofer is bad.
Once you have done all of the basic research and comparison of price and quality, you should have no problem getting your subwoofer back when you need it. Yes, the sound does come out of a subwoofer. It has been found that subwoofers can actually play some tunes louder than a regular head or top. Why is this so?
These woofers are built with a motor inside the bass box which moves a series of rubber diaphragms. The head of the subwoofer is attached to the bottom. A cable is then run from the motor and the bottom to the speakers. You would have to use your ears. Turn on the stereo and set it up properly. Now listen to some tunes so that you can identify them and decide whether the music sounds loud enough. You have to listen to your ordinary music too.
If you listen to this music with your normal speakers, you will hear almost every tune that you like. So what should be the normal listening level to be able to determine that the music sounds loud enough? That is a question that the readers have a tough time answering. This is not a very easy thing to do, but if you have an old friend who is good at detecting the bass of music, you can take him or her along and ask him to hear the music with your subwoofer set up.
It should be noted that when you take a friend along with you to listen to music with a subwoofer, you will have to do all the things while the other friend plays the music. Sound does come out of a subwoofer. That is why it is critical to have your speakers set up correctly before using your audio system.
The frequency settings of your subwoofer should match the frequency settings of your main speakers. Specialists in the audio-video field indicate that room acoustics are of primary importance for every audio-video system. Professionals also highlight that most homemade studios have nasty standing-wave issues, which even the best subwoofers can not overcome. Poor acoustics can weaken the sound of your sub. So, make sure you have good acoustic in your room before blaming your sub for the soft sound.
Sometimes, when using subwoofers in a studio, for example, the sound sources may work poorly. All you need to do is check your microphone or other program sources from your audio configuration to find out whether they cause the problem or the sub itself.
Just connect your subwoofer to another source, such as an iPod or other. In general, underpowering your subwoofer is not necessarily dangerous for it. However, not giving your sub enough power definitely will cause weak sound.
Also, you have to be careful not to power up the sub with an overworked amplifier. An overworked amplifier sends out a clipped signal, which can seriously damage your subwoofer.
If your subwoofer sounds good at low playback levels, but the sound weakens when you increase the volume, this may mean only one thing. Your amplifier is small for your system and needs replacement with a larger one of more suitable ability.
Depending on the size of your audio system, more than one amplifier may be necessary. The best configuration is one amplifier channel for each subwoofer. When your subwoofer sounds weak, a more severe problem can be a motor fault. Once you make sure that the reason for the weak sound is not one of the above, verify whether the motor is still running correctly.
The battery or the fuse may blow and cause issues to the motor. Such a defect would affect the sound quality. When subwoofers work in a sound system, they must have correct polarity relative to each other. If they do not, this will cause a lower sound pressure level SPL.
Subwoofers are great at making music loud, but only to a certain point. Fast forward to in the video above to follow along—the rest is a showcase of a specific subwoofer. The above video from Parts Express breaks it down really nicely, and shows you how to get it done in no time. Here are the important steps:.
