All You Need To Know About Subwoofers
Subwoofers are innovative sound systems with the fundamental idea of reproducing low frequencies. In many cases, this is roughly the bottom two octaves, from 20Hz to 80Hz. At Noteworthy Audio, we have various models that serve every avid music lover’s vision of high quality sound.
The common issue with subwoofers is the quality of the reproduced quality of the bass. The worst kind of subwoofer system will only provide a boomy or monotonal 'woomf' of energy, lacking the in-depth performance you’d want to hear. However, on occasion the actual subwoofer isn’t the only thing to look out for–the room’s own acoustic properties are of necessary importance. In an acoustically poor room, even the best subwoofer can give off poor bass performance. Therefore, bass management is a necessary component of subwoofers to be aware of.
Why do you need a Subwoofer?
Due to these low frequencies, subwoofers allow you to not just hear the sound, but feel it. When listening to bass-heavy audio like EDM music or a roaring action film, floor speakers may not be enough to enjoy the full sound experience. A great subwoofer will help take away the heavy lifting from your loudspeakers. This will in almost all cases provide a more open and superior sounding midrange and larger soundstage. So, let’s get into two lines of models from Noteworthy Audio that properly display good systems:
JL Audio
First, we have the JL Audio Dominion d110 Subwoofer, which combines a state-of-the-art Subwoofer and a High Powered amplifier. This sound system delivers unmatched performance and value, reproducing powerful low-frequency events. It comes in two stunning finishes: gloss or ash.
Another amazing product from JL Audio is the JL Audio Fathom f212, with its function serving best for larger spaces thanks to its higher power output, larger driver and superior cabinet construction.
SVS Sound
Some of our bestselling subwoofers with superb value are from SVS. The SVS Sound PB-4000 is a ported cabinet design with a 13.5 inch driver featuring two large ferrite magnets that generate unparalleled levels of sonics. Like many of the SVS subwoofers, it has a premium glass fibre laminated dustcap. Take a closer look here.
Martin Logan Balanced Force 210 Subwoofer
Another great mention includes two of our Martin Logan products– the Balanced Force 210 and 212. Including signature twin-driver, force-cancelling configuration, bass-blurring cabinet resonance is practically eliminated. BalancedForce subwoofers are the full realisation of years of engineering by the MartinLogan team.
KEF KF92 and KC62
Finally, the KEF KF92 and the KC62 are great subwoofers that make for easy placement that can suit almost any space. Smaller, yet still powerful, the Intelligent Bass Extension optimises the relationship between the amplifier, drivers, and cabinet. These subwoofers look and work great in a free space, next to a wall, and more.
Overall, we recommend subwoofers for the ultimate home sound system. Adding one to your speaker system would greatly relieve the other speakers from reproducing any demanding low frequencies, therefore, those action movies or hit hip-hop tunes can be thoroughly enjoyed the way they are meant to be.
