Sub Woofer Amps
Today there are a lot of audio products out there and it can be hard to buy an amp. An amp is an important part of today's technology and is improving so fast. In this article I will give you some tips in buying a sub woofer amp.
First of all is the slew rate of the amp. The slew rate is the amount of time it takes for the amp to go from teak back to zero. If the slew rate is to fat then the sound will sound sharp and for a base we want an amp that has a slew rate of about 1000 to 5000.
Next is the speaker, the speaker is also important. I world stay away from speakers made from cardboard. Buy what you can afford.
Lastly is the enclosure. The enclosure is very important in getting those low frequencies. Here are a few things to look for when buying or building a enclosure. If you build the enclosure you self, go for a wood product. The wood used must be a medium to hard wood with lots of fibers. This will make sure you don't build a box that sound bad. We use the medium to hard wood to prevent flux. This is where the speaker's movement causes the enclosure to vibrate; this can cause the entire box to vibrate a part.
Next make sure the enclosure is a air tight seal at all the joints. Keep in mind the port. The best way to get the right box is to look at the spec sheet.

How do I uninstall a sub-woofer from an Omega woofer-tube?
I have an Omega #BT12L 12" Amplified Bass Tube and the sub-woofer recently tore and now it sounds awful. I've been trying to figure out a way to remove it, but it seems impossible. I tried to remove the back part of the tube but was unsuccessful, and the front part won't seem to come off. I don't want to remove the sub-woofer by breaking the tube. Is there a proper way to remove the sub-woofer?
just cut the cone out of the woofer then start hacking away with a pair of tin snips until you can remove the outer part of the basket. If the screws won't come out then drill them out. Then put some foam tape around the hole and stick your new sub in using new flat head screws. don't use the old holes.

An Overview Of Car Sub-Woofers
Car sub-woofers are dedicated to the reproduction of low audio frequencies and they provide depth to the overall sound of your music. There are many types of sub-woofers in all shapes and sizes. When choosing a car audio sub-woofer, you must consider the amount of space in your vehicle.
It doesn't matter what music you like or how loudly or softly you listen to music, sub-woofers are the most crucial part of your listening experience. The small car speakers have problems producing good low frequency sound to give the music realism. A sub-woofer makes you see the difference of a sound system and a great sound system. Below are a few aspects to consider before purchasing a sub-woofer.
If you want your system to really boom, there isn't a substitute for a good amount of power. You should pay some attention to RMS rating of power and not the peak rating. The RMS ratings measure the continuous output of power and they are the much realistic measure compared peak ratings. Always be sure to match the sub-woofer's power handling to the amplifier's power output.
Sensitivity and power go hand in hand in order to achieve good quality sound output. A sub-woofer having a high sensitivity rating, needs less power in producing the same sound as a sub-woofer with a low sensitivity.
The enclosure in which a sub-woofer is mounted on has a great effect on the quality of sound that sub-woofer produces. In short, properly sealed boxes always give you deep and accurate while bandpass enclosures only produce a higher volume.
While typical sub-woofers have single voice coils, dual voice coil sub-woofers have two different voice coils, each having its connections and they are mounted on the same cylinder on one common cone. Dual voice coils sub-woofers are a popular choice among people who want more flexibility in wiring their car sound systems.
A question that never ends is what size of sub-woofers plays the loudest. Well, its not the easiest question, you must consider the enclosure type, sensitivity rating and the power available. If your goal is having a car sound system that plays loud and space is not an issue, choose the biggest sub-woofers but do not under estimate smaller sub-woofers. With the proper enclosure and if properly powered, they can produce great sound.
You should enjoy your music while driving so get a good set of sub-woofers and enjoy.
