Serious About Sound?

Just like your home cinema system at home - adding a subwoofer to your system will greatly enhance the bass and add a new depth of sound to your music. Bass is the low frequencies that you not only hear but also feel. In fact, without bass, you are only hearing half the song! A subwoofer is a large speaker which is designed to handle significant levels of power and move large amounts of air. They can be supplied on their own – for you to make your own box or install. However, we recommend purchasing a pre-built, specially tuned box called an enclosure. This guarantees great sound. Enclosures can be either Passive, which means they require an additional amplifier, or Active, which means they have a built in amplifier. We offer all in one box solutions with everything you need, making it easy to experience bass in your car.

Subwoofers

Eliminate distorted sound by adding an amplifier. Your car stereo will have a small amplifier built in – the trouble is, if you have to turn your volume control up more than half way the quality of sound is poor. This is ok for running your standard speakers, however if you want to get the most out of your upgrades an additional amplifier is a great investment. There are two different types of amplifier available: Stereo (two or four channels), which are used for speakers and Mono (1 channel), which are used to power subwoofers. Amplifiers are rated in “watts” and the larger the figure the more powerful it is. Subwoofers generally require much more power than speakers. Adding an amplifier will make your system louder, significantly improve the sound quality and make it much more flexible. We recommend amplifiers are fitted professionally by one of Halfords’ qualified installers as they need to be wired up correctly to your vehicle’s electrical system.

Amplifiers

New component speakers will provide extra crispness and detail of sound, bringing out the full potential of your car audio system and offer improved sound quality over co-axial speakers. However, they do need to be professionally fitted in the majority of vehicles. Component speaker kits consist of two speakers – a mid range and a tweeter - and a crossover. The mid range produces the majority of the music and the vocals while the tweeter reproduces the high end frequencies. The job of the crossover is to control which frequencies are sent to each speaker. They are commonly available in either five or six inch kits to suit your vehicle so please check with the Halfords team to see which is suitable. To get the most out of your component speakers, combine with a suitable amplifier that has the perfect power output.

Component Speakers

New co-axial speakers will greatly improve the sound from your system and are an easy upgrade to your standard system. You may be able to fit these yourself, however if you are not confident Halfords offer a full fitting service. Halfords carry a wide range of sizes so you are sure to find the perfect match for your car. Most speakers fitted from standard are not up to the task of producing good sound and are often simple dual cone speakers. For better sound reproduction use 2 way or where possible 3 way speakers to make sure you can reproduce all the frequencies your car stereo is playing. Co-axial speakers can work off your standard car stereo or a suitable amplifier.
