Different Types of Speakers – Coaxial Loudspeakers, Component Systems and Cones

There are currently several loudspeakers in the market. If you find that you need it, you may save money, but it will significantly improve the car's sound system. Read on to find out more about the types of speakers available for you

Coaxial Speakers

This type of speaker is the most common. The factory-installed sound system typically installs at least two of these types in new vehicles. Basically, a midrange cone subwoofer with at least one tweeter on top. The result is medium and medium sound from the midwoofer and high frequency reproduction from the tweeter

Older cars typically only have mid-range speakers without the tweeter being plugged in. As car makers have perceived the significance of the car radio over the last few decades, they have repaired the factory-installed systems with coaxial speakers. Do not be fooled by car makers who say that there is a 6-speaker in their car because the four loudspeakers are usually medium-sized cams, and the 5 and 6 speakers are simply equipped with them. Unless configured as component (below) with a factory-installed amplifier or subwoofer, you can not call this 6-piece system premium sound; So you do not have to pay for something you already have.

Coaxial loudspeakers are usually two-way, three-way, four-way, etc. It is described as a loudspeaker. Simply put, a bi-directional subwoofer with a tweeter belongs to it. The 3-way adds another tweeter and so on. You can ask why a tweeter is needed and I will explain it.

A typical non-tweeter speaker will record about 15-100,000 Hz (remember to use bass at low frequencies). Regular source units, such as CD players, give full-spectrum sound as everyday noise, which is heard at 20 to 20000 Hz. Without tweeters, the system will try to reproduce the missing 10000 Hz with something you do not know physically. The result is not only a lack of high-frequency sound, but also additional distortion or degradation to the overall sound quality of the system.

Drives allow the system to reproduce the otherwise impossible sound, making it much clearer and Determine the sound quality. Each additional tweeter adds more detail to the sound as it is in a certain range.

Component Speaker System

The component system typically includes mid-range subwoofers and crossover filtering networks. The above mentioned for the midwoofer and tweeter are the same as the part systems. The only difference you notice is the twin tweeter. It works the same way as coaxial tweeters, except for crossover filter networks.

These filters significantly improve sound quality by only transmitting audio signals that physically handle different components. For example, only high frequency signals (10000-20000 Hz) would be broadcast on the tweeters and the lower frequencies (25-10000 Hz) to the midwoofers. The result is even better sound quality because each component does not receive any signs that they can not physically reproduce. Component systems are usually much more expensive, but with much better sound reproduction. Additionally, you do not usually find 3 or more path component systems because the filter is not needed. That is why I said that the factory-installed audio systems will only be of premium quality if there is a crossover network.

Cone and back material

Subwoofer or A tweeter plays an important role primarily in their longevity. Sound quality is just as good as the whole design (ie type of voice coil, magnets size, etc.). Though denser cones (Kevlar, glass fiber, polypropylene) result in better sound quality than thinner materials (cloth, paper), they understand that the whole design results in great sound, so you should not silence a speaker just because it is thinner tapered material. Heavier or denser cones last longer, and are particularly useful for permanent high outputs.

Like the cone material, the surround material plays an important role in the longevity of the loudspeakers. In its simplest explanation, the cone must move up and down as it sounds. Think of the loudspeaker as a trampoline, the center elastic material of the cone and the springs on the edges around the knee. The surround must be hard and be able to touch slightly. Again, the denser material works much better because the thinner materials collide and worsen over time. Most low-end car audio speakers are frothy as the surround material, but they usually harden and cure after the temperature changes – which is done in the summer and winter car by heating or air conditioning (especially direct sunlight).
