Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between active and passive subwoofers?
Active subwoofers have built-in amplifiers and require only a power source and audio input. Passive subwoofers need an external amplifier to operate.
Where should I place a subwoofer in a room?
Subwoofers work best when placed near the front or in a corner of the room. Placement may vary depending on the room size and acoustics.
Can I use a subwoofer with any speaker system?
Yes, subwoofers can be integrated with most speaker systems, but ensure compatibility in terms of power ratings and connections.
What size subwoofer is right for me?
Smaller venues may only need 10 or 12-inch subwoofers, while larger spaces benefit from 15 or 18-inch models for more impact.
Are subwoofers suitable for permanent installations?
Yes, many models are designed for fixed installations in clubs, schools, and houses of worship, offering long-term durability.
Do I need a crossover for my subwoofer?
Some subwoofers come with built-in crossovers. For others, an external crossover helps direct the right frequencies to your subs and speakers.
How much power does a subwoofer need?
That depends on the room size and your audio needs. Check RMS wattage and match it with an appropriate amplifier if using a passive model.
