Car Audio Speaker Types EXPLAINED! Tweeters, Mids, Midbass etc!

Thank you for your service. This is what I needed.

what about full range speaker?

Thank you very much for this

Replaced factory head unit with a Sony aftermarket. Sounded great with factory speakers. But when I went with new aftermarket Sony 6.5 on the front, the sound quality deteriorated. No bass and harsh mids and highs. It was a 3 way 6.5 poly cone. Ended up putting factory speakers back on.

What are seald back speakers use for?

What is mid-bass, actually? The term confuses me.

Does it cover "bass + mid range" spectrum? Or just the middle part of the bass spectrum?
Does it refer to audible sound spectrum, or does it refer to driver construction type?
If it refers to construction type/class, how is it different from woofer?

Shouldnt drivers be classified into sub-woofer (for sub-bass), woofer (for bass), speaker (for mid range, or vocal spectrum), twitter (for the trebles or highs)?
Where does mid-bass fit into?

I rarely encounter mid-bass term used in home audio.

I mostly see tweeters put on the pillars or on the top side of the doors. Can tweeters be placed in the middle of the dash? As in under the stereo of a car?

Hi, thanks!. Can we join 2way coaxial speaker with tweeter through cross over to increase the high range sound? Please clarify.

Your video a are great. You give a lot of good information.

is front component speakers enough? no sub,rear spears nor amps.

I get that 2 way speakers combine the woofer and tweeter. And the 3 way adds midrange to it. Would that mean that a 3 way speakers is better or would it be basically the same?

Can you explain the difference between a true mid bass speaker and a mid range speaker

So if I have 2 10s, I should just get 4 midrange speakers and not coaxil

I know nothing about speakers' I've got old car mint condition one of the speakers don't work so was just going to change it' but after watching your video decided to get a decent pair of speakers so this is exactly the information need cheers

I have a stock 3 way component set up in my Kia carnival 2023.. it’s the stock system. If I replaced it with a 2 way component system would that be ok?

What’s your opinion for the best midrange speakers for a full, flat highest sound quality?Music quality is all in the midrange. I’m coming from audio recording world and car audio sounds like garbage to me. Diamond audio was the best I could find 12 years ago for a full accurate sound. What’s the best today?

Absolutely love all your videos you are the car audio 🐐

Which is better overall if you want luxury bass, clarity, and sound inside the car only not outside the car Alpine R, GTO 629, Focal, or Infinity Kappa or another brand??

It doesn't have Peugeot 206cc on the site...

I’ve been looking for an answer for this for some time, please help; If I already have subwoofers, what speakers should I go with?

Thank you

Love your chanel... I'm new Subscriber.. 😎

Do you do custom walls?

Hey how's it going? I have a quick question for you. I building an enclosure for 4 12s the specs are 44 x 18.5 x 28.5. My question to you is what size port/ports should I have in the center to get some where around 31 to 34 hertz. Thanks

I recently installed 4 speakers of jbl cs762 in my car,what you think is the best amplifier i should be looking for?

I love how he actually has a cruthfield shirt, that's so great

I need help on a subject.
I would like to separate low end of the spectrum as much as possible by adding different size woofers as listen to various genre of music.
18-15" sub for deep bass, 12-10" subs for 120bpm sound and 8" for low-mid bass range. Is it possible to separate low frequencies even more just like a drum set. I don't want just 18", 15", 12 or a 10" I want them to co-exist together.

Love your videos! What do you think will fit my Mercedes w124 best, it got 2 12" sub in the trunk with 1500w rms each.. Ported box..
Regards Oscar

Love your videos man. Ive learned so much from this channel. What is your opinion on those sound absorbtion pads that gets placed behind the door speakers to eliminate backwaves? Do they actually work? What do you usually use to help with speaker backwaves in doors

i have a sprinter campervan and only have space for some components and a small amp.. what do you think of the small under seat subs to help with the bass??

Want to do a build for me Mark

What video was it you made where you explained how doubling power gains 3db in theory and how cone area effect that etc? I wanted to watch it again and I can't remember what video it was

Hey, I'm thinking of getting the Audison SR 4.300 4 Channel Amplifier, If I use the high level inputs, can I then use the RCA pre outs to send the signal to another amp? or would I need to use RCA in to get the RCA signal out again. thanks.

Hey Mark, is it a bad move to use 4 coaxials and tweeters? I have a w7 and it has so much bass, will the lack of mid bass hurt my sound quality and imaging?

Thanks brother this is my first time looking for a system for my '21 Camry SE.

Great information! Thanks for sharing. Fully watched, liked and subscribed. You have a new friend here👍

Is there a way to increase the voltage of your head units pre outs?

I like 3-way 6x9s in the rear, 3-way 6.5s in the doors, and Kenwood tweeters up by the window in the front doors.
I always run 400 watts high-pass frequency to all of those. I'm hooked on Soundstream Audio for the highs.

And

I am addicted to Se subs. I like to run 2 12" subwoofers in a 5-cubic square inch sealed box facing towards the cab. I always use at least a 1600 watt peak amplifier. (I've learned that that is not enough power. The Amp will go into protect mode a lot during the summer time. Sometimes, the Amp will burn up.)
Last system I had, after the Amp burned up, I went back with a 2200 watt amplifier, but my alternator couldn't keep up. So, I put capacitor in, and the capacitor couldn't recharge fast enough.

So, I put in a crossover so I could control the low-pass frequencies. Just rising around, I would cut the lows down to protect the system, but at competitions, I would turn it up.

I was putting out 163 decibels. Crystal clear highs and mids. You could hear the bass from 4 blocks away.

I couldn't get the TVs to work, though. I had two in the visors up front and 2
two in the headrests. They worked at first, but the audio had interference. I moved the wires, and they just never worked after that...

The car looked nice, though. It was a 2001 Nissan Altima on 18" Boss wheels and low profile tires. I tried fire 20s, but they wouldn't fit.

Really your video's are extremely knowledgeable and I appreciate your work sooooo much I am following you from Egypt but I want to know something about speakers and I want to choose 8 inches speakers should I get them midbass or midrange ? ♥️♥️♥️♥️

Can you please do a video on head units compatible with 2017 8.4 Uconnect Durango’s . Everyone just gives a list of what works but not a list of features you lose like heated seats or sports mode .

What amp would you use to run a single JL13w7. Looking for SQ.

@caraudiofabrication is there a threshold of frequencies that tends to switch from "directional" to "nondirectional"? E.g. if my factory door speaker location(s) most point to my ankles/knees, what frequencies would be better produced at other locations so that they may be directed more towards my ears?

what was that crossover

Thanks Mark. How do you personally calculate port volume vs air volume when building a subwoofer enclosure that will hold multiple subwoofers. Like say an enclosure with 4 8" subs. Not tuning, but port velocity which not too many people talk about. I am building a box and wondering if I need to add double the port area for each sub and make the port longer for tuning since it is wider but that would allow for proper port velocity as opposed to a restricted velocity which make the subs underperform and may cause chuffing.

Man I always love your videos! I been doing installs for 20+ years but I always learn something from your videos if I don't it just encourages me to do better all around wen I'm doing a install if that makes sense I couldn't find the wording I was wanting to use lol long day at work

I’m positive Pioneer has 5 way component speakers.

Do Crutchfield cover the European market?

Didn't mention super tweeters, bullet tweeters etc.

I would think a subwoofer is common in any application. Just imagine how BB King would wound without a subwoofer? How about the selective sounds of Michael Jackson, a production by Quincy Jones, etc, how would they sound without a subwoofer? Classical music is the best way (my opinion) to test a system for a "true dynamic" sound. Why? because most productions do not deviate to far from the norms. Yes they may use heavy processing but it's to more than often give a natural sound, that's even for electronic music like Dubstep, Trap, and Trip Hop.

Love your videos sir! I just got done installing two JL-Audio-C1-690x and JL-Audio-C1-650x speakers from Crutch Field. Sound great! Now to look for a lowish profile subwoofer box that will work for my 2017 Subaru Outback. Do you have a video on differences between different manufactures, just out of curiosity lol

I wish u made this vid 2days ago 🤦🏻‍♂️
