Enjoy Music While on the Road With the Help of Pioneer 10-Inch Car Speaker and Subwoofer Enclosures

When you are driving down the road, listening to your favorite music can make your travels more enjoyable. You can hook up 10-inch car speakers and a subwoofer to boost your sound quality. You can use Pioneer 10-inch car speaker and subwoofer enclosures to house your drivers and help enhance the car audio.

What is the role of an enclosure?

Enclosures do more than just give car speakers and subwoofers a secure place to be held. They also keep interference to a minimum. When drivers on those devices are engaged, they can generate a lot of vibration. That vibration can make its own sound, which can get in the way of the tunes that you actually want to hear. Further, if you imagine the vibration as invisible waves traveling through the air, they can collide with your musical waves. This can cause distortion, a dampening of the overall volume, reverberations, and/оr echoes.

What types of enclosures are there to choose from?

There are two main types of enclosures used in car audio systems:

  • Sealed: A sealed compartment is air-tight. Since air cannot pass through the surface of the enclosure, the interior air pressure is constantly changing as the music plays. That pressure can help the cone in the speaker or subwoofer snap in and out much more quickly. This can give you a clear, precise sound.
  • Ported: One of these speaker enclosures will have a small hole, or port. This opening is used to equalize pressure on either side of the compartment. Using a ported enclosure can be relatively energy efficient. You can get more power and more volume than if you used a comparable sealed speaker enclosure.
What are shallow-mount subwoofers and enclosures?

These are more compact pieces that can be used when you have limited space in your car's trunk or rear cargo area. Traditionally, larger subwoofers and enclosures are used to create more bass power. If you use a smaller size subwoofer, you may still be able to generate the volume that you want due to innovations in engineering. To make sure everything fits correctly in your car, you would use a piece specifically designed for your shallow-mount subwoofer.

What are band-pass enclosures?

These are designed specifically for subwoofers. They can produce a booming sound, which is good for bass notes. They use a dual-chambered box, and this combination of a sealed component and a ported component allows for greater efficiency when emitting low frequency sounds.
