Car Audio Myths: Tweeters Need To Be Installed Near Midrange Speakers

Tweeter Midrange

Decades ago, car audio professionals were adamant about the statement that tweeters needed to be installed right beside the midrange speakers in your car audio system. Is this accurate? The answer is that it depends on a few variables. Keeping them close can’t hurt, but it might come at the expense of improving the soundstage location in your audio system.

Why Did Tweeters Need To Be Installed Beside Midrange Speakers?

Decades ago, almost everyone used passive crossover networks to divide the audio signals from the source unit or amplifier in car audio systems between the tweeter and midrange drivers. Passive crossover design is much more complex than most people understand. The values of the components need to be altered based on proximity, distance and even the direction the midrange and tweeters are facing.

Most crossover networks were designed to provide a smooth transition from the woofer to the tweeter when both are installed beside the other on the same plane. Imagine what you see in a car audio display at your local specialist retailer as this reference. The reality is, this isn’t how many of these systems are installed in a vehicle. A few companies caught on to this and designed their networks to deliver smooth response in typical installation situations.

Back in 2005, our friends at Of Sound Mind Labs were reviewing a set of car audio speakers for a car audio magazine. As part of the process, they took frequency response measurements with the tweeter mounted on the same plane as the 6.5-inch woofer from the set.

Tweeter Midrange
Frequency response of a 6.5-inch component set measured at 1 meter on-axis with the speakers.

The large dips around 1,000 and 5,500 hertz certainly aren’t ideal. Worse, boosting around 5.5 kHz with an equalizer will dramatically increase the work the tweeter needs to do and could cause damage at high volume levels.

After a discussing the measurements with the engineering team that designed the speaker set, it was revealed that the intended application was for the listener to be about 45 degrees off-axis to the midrange, and the tweeter was to be angled toward the listening position and installed beside the midrange using the included surface-mounting installation kit. The reviewer added the tweeter mount and measured the system off-axis as described.

Tweeter Midrange
Frequency response measured 45 degrees off-axis to the midrange with the tweeter aimed at the measurement position.

As you can clearly see, the response is now amazingly flat through the 1 kHz and 5 kHz ranges. There was no equalization applied – the crossovers were optimized to deliver a smooth response in configuration. Frustratingly, this information wasn’t in the owner’s manual.

Adjustable Passive Crossover Networks

Over the years, a few companies have offered adjustable passive crossover networks. The intent was to allow your technician to fine-tune each speaker’s output around the crossover frequency for different installation locations. Alpine and Focal were good examples of this crossover-configured flexibility. This solution wasn’t perfect but was much better than not having any adjustment at all.

Tweeter Midrange
The Alpine Type-X SPX-177A component speaker set included passive crossovers that had adjustments to compensate for different path lengths between the woofer and tweeter.

Modern Audio Installations

In the last few years, car audio digital signal processors have become popular and much more affordable. Aside from equalizing each speaker’s output in the audio system, a significant benefit of a DSP is that your installer can adjust the crossover points and apply signal delay to each speaker to ensure that the output of each arrives at the listening position in-phase. What does all this gobbledygook mean? Your tweeters don’t have to be installed right beside the midrange speaker, so long as the technician working on your car or truck knows how to use the DSP features to produce a smooth response in the vehicle.

Tweeter Midrange
The ARC Audio PS8 Pro series of processors includes adjustable crossover slopes, different filter response curves and ultra-fine signal delay settings to help create amazing listening experiences.
Tweeter Midrange
The bit One HD Virtuoso from Audison includes a Finite Impulse Response (FIR) crossover mode as an option for your technician to help deliver smooth performance.
Tweeter Midrange
The DSR1 DSP from Rockford Fosgate offers a Linkwitz-Riley crossover with adjustable slopes to deliver a response curve that sums flat through each crossover frequency.

Let the Experts Design and Install Your Car Stereo System

More often than not, information about the proper application of passive crossover networks is only shared with authorized retailers. The staff at these facilities invests a significant amount of time and money in attending manufacturer and industry training events in order to glean this sort of information and deliver the best possible solutions for clients. Likewise, the training offered by DSP manufacturers allows experienced retailers to configure and calibrate your audio system efficiently and accurately.

Too Long; Didn’t Read – Do Tweeters Need To Be Installed Near Midrange Speakers?

The short and sweet answer to the question about installing tweeters near midrange speakers in a car audio system is that it depends on the crossovers. The improvement in stage height afforded by having the tweeters in the sail panels or A-pillars instead of low in the doors is just one small reason modern car audio systems should be designed and calibrated with a digital signal processor. Drop by your local specialty mobile enhancement retailer today and audition one of their demo vehicles. Based on your feedback about what you hear and enjoy, they can design an audio system that will deliver the performance you want in your car or truck.

A Look at How Car Audio Amplifier Designs Have Changed

Amplifier Design

Car audio amplifier designs have changed a great deal over the last few decades. Modern amplifiers have more features along with improved efficiency, and they offer consumers better value than their predecessors. This article will examine the key components in the construction of mobile audio amplifiers, their evolution and their benefits.

Amplifier Design Balances Power and Efficiency

When an engineer sets out to design an amplifier, he has to specify the value, size and tolerance of hundreds of different components. The most crucial of these in terms of the amplifier’s performance are the operational amplifiers (op-amps), the transistors or integrated circuits used in the driver stage and the transistors or MOSFETS used in the output stage.

Amplifier Design
A well-designed heatsink will dissipate heat evenly over the entire surface to help keep the components inside cool.
Amplifier Design
Poorly designed heatsinks and cooling systems result in hot spots that may allow switching and output devices to fail prematurely.

Transistor Cases

Amplifier Design

Many early audio amplifier designs used TO-3-case transistors. These large cases were primarily a heatsink for the small circuit inside. Fine leads connected the pins on the bottom to the board and to the terminals. TO-3 case devices were introduced by Motorola around 1955 as an upgrade over vacuum tubes. While the metal can offers a good amount of thermal capacity, the size makes amplifiers unnecessarily large.

TO-220 and TO-265 plastic case transistors and MOSFETS allowed designers to dramatically reduce the size of amplifiers. These cases were much easier to attach to a heatsink, and the reduction in connection length between the terminals, along with advancements in component construction, allowed for improved efficiency and faster switching speeds.

Modern surface-mount transistors and MOSFETS can pass amazing amounts of current with blindingly fast switching speeds. The increase in switching speed has improved the quality of Class-D audio circuits to where they rival many A/B designs. Equally, lower internal resistance values allow these devices to shrink in overall size, making amplifier designs more compact.

Product Assembly

A significant part of the cost of building an amplifier is in the time it takes to place components on the circuit board. Through-hole devices like capacitors, inductors, TO-220/TO-265 case transistors, MOSFETS and resistors need to be placed by hand. This is a slow and costly process.

Amplifier Design
Now considered partially obsolete, through-hole devices and boards were the standard in car audio amplifier design for many decades.

More modern designs use surface-mount capacitors, op-amps, MOSFETS, resistors and diodes that can be placed by machine then passed through a soldering machine. Not only is the assembly process faster and less costly, but the parts themselves are also typically less expensive and reduce the bill of materials (BOM) cost of the amp. In short, you get much better value for your dollar.

Some large components, such as power supply capacitors, high-power resistors and large-value inductors, still need to be placed by hand. The sheer size of these components prohibits them from being located automatically.

Amplifier Design
Pick-and-place machines for surface-mount components load parts with amazing speed and accuracy. Many use cameras to confirm placement to guarantee performance.
Amplifier Design
Rockford Fosgate uses surface-mount components wherever possible to deliver excellent value and performance. This is a signal processing board from their P500-12P amplified subwoofer system.
Amplifier Design
ARC Audio uses surface-mount output devices in their ARC Series amplifiers to deliver class-leading efficiency.

Modern Amplifier Designs Delivery Better Performance

If you’re shopping for a new amplifier for your car or truck, drop by your local specialty mobile enhancement retailer today and check out the latest designs that deliver impressive sound quality and performance. Newer amplifiers offer increased accuracy and efficiency – a combination that helps make your music sound better than ever.

Car Audio Myths: You Can’t Mix and Match Different Brands

Car Audio Brands

There’s a strange car audio myth that claims you can’t mix different brands of source units, speakers, amplifiers, subwoofers and signal processors in the same audio system. While it might be fun for a distributor, sales representative or employee at a car audio retailer to do a one-brand build, chances are you’ll want to pick and choose from the different brands at the store you are dealing with to get the most bang for your buck.

Source Units

Whether you choose Sony, Kenwood, Pioneer or Alpine for your source doesn’t matter in passing audio to a digital signal processor or an amplifier. Almost all source units provide a low-voltage audio output called a pre-amp signal. Some models have pre-amp outputs rated for 1.8 to 2.0 volts, while others have high-voltage outputs capable of 5 volts. The different voltage does affect how loudly your system can play but may reduce background noise in the system by allowing your installer to turn down the sensitivity control on your amplifier.

When shopping for a source unit for your car audio system, you will want to balance features and specifications with an easy-to-use interface. If you can’t walk up to a radio on display at the local car stereo shop and figure out how to use it, the interface is likely either too complex or not thought out well enough. Trying a radio and connecting it to your smartphone is a crucial part of the purchase process.

Car Audio Brands
The analog pre-amp outputs like those found on this Sony XAV-AX7000 multimedia receiver are compatible with almost any digital signal processor or amplifier.

Digital Signal Processor

If you plan to have a DSP in your car, something that’s crucial to recreating an authentic listening experience, there are three options for feeding a signal into the processor. All processors will accept analog pre-amp signals from any source unit on the market. Some processors include digital audio inputs that use a TOSLINK fiber-optic connector or an RCA jack. If the factory radio in your car or truck can’t be upgraded easily, several interfaces are available that provide analog and digital outputs. Some processors have Bluetooth audio receivers built in or available as an option. You can stream music from your smartphone directly to the DSP and bypass a source unit altogether.

The type of processor you choose is tied directly to the design of your car’s audio system. If you are running a set of components and a subwoofer, then six channels are more than enough. If you want to upgrade an elaborate factory-installed audio system that includes an upmixer, then you might need as many as 18 or 20 channels of processing.

Car Audio Brands
Digital signal processors like the ARC Audio PS8-Pro have balanced differential analog pre-amp inputs compatible with almost any source unit on the market.
Car Audio Brands
Audison’s bit One HD Virtuoso includes both analog and digital inputs that allow your installer to design a complex multi-source audio system.
Car Audio Brands
The DSR1 from Rockford Fosgate includes four pre-amp inputs, four balanced speaker-level inputs, a coaxial digital input and eight outputs to allow your installer to create an impressive audio system.

Car Audio Amplifiers

Just as with processors, almost every amplifier is designed with analog audio inputs that work with the pre-amp signal from a source unit or processor. Some amplifiers include additional components or circuitry that allows them to be used with the speaker outputs of a factory-installed audio system.

Amplifiers increase the voltage of the signal coming from the source unit, and the relatively low impedance of the speakers in your car or truck results in reasonable amounts of power being produced.

Car Audio Brands
The Hertz ML Power 4 is a compact four-channel amplifier that’s rated to produce 150 watts per channel into a 4-ohm load.
Car Audio Brands
The ARC Audio ARC 1000.4 is a high-power four-channel amplifier rated at 250 watts per channel.

Speakers and Subwoofers Take Some Attention

Where source units, processors and amplifiers don’t care what feeds them, the speakers you choose need to be of the correct impedance for the amplifier you are using. Most car audio speakers have a nominally 4-ohm design, but some subwoofers offer impedances as low as 1 ohm. Mixing and matching brands doesn’t matter, but choosing the proper impedance does. The product specialist you are working with can help ensure that you get the right combination.

Car Audio Brands
Rockford Fosgate offers its Power-Series 10-inch subwoofer with dual 2- or dual 4-ohm voice coils to maximize the performance of the amplifier that will be driving them.

Expert Technicians Make It All Work

No matter what brands you choose, you’ll need someone who can integrate everything into your vehicle so that it will function properly and reliably. Unlike home audio systems, it’s not just a matter of plugging everything in. The colors of factory wiring need to be matched to the connections on a new radio or speaker. Likewise, the products you’ve chosen need to be mounted securely, and the cables that run between components need to be routed safely. Selecting a professional installer is often more difficult than choosing the audio components for your system. With that said, it’s worth researching to find the best company to upgrade the audio system in your vehicle.

Car Audio Brands
The use of a steering wheel cover, seat covers and floor mats are a sign you are dealing with a shop that cares about the condition of your vehicle. Mobile Edge in Lehighton, Pennsylvania, is an excellent example of this.

Too Long; Didn’t Read

The bottom line is that few companies excel in all areas of car audio components. Some offer excellent amplifiers and signal processors, some make great source units, and others have amazing speakers. Mixing the best products across several brands can result in an audio system that sounds amazing and offers the features you want. Start your shopping at the specialty mobile enhancement retailers near you to find out what options are available to upgrade the stereo in your car or truck today!

Do Car Audio Subwoofers Require Equalization for Smooth Response?

Subwoofer Equalization

Not long ago, we saw a post where someone asked whether they needed to dedicate a channel of their digital signal processor to equalize the subwoofer in their car audio system. As usual, several amateurs chimed in with their opinions, but nobody presented any facts supporting a yes or no answer. As professionals, when we’re challenged with a question to which many variables can affect the answer, the best bet is to set up an experiment. Let’s find out if your sub needs equalization to sound great.

What Happens When You Install a Subwoofer in Your Car?

Since we already have the data from one of the Test Drive Reviews the BestCarAudio.com team is working on, let’s look at the Rockford Fosgate P500-12P subwoofer system and analyze its performance in and out of the vehicle.

The graph below shows a frequency response sweep of this impressively compact 12-inch enclosure with the sub sitting in the middle of a parking lot.

Subwoofer Equalization
Performance of the Rockford Fosgate P500-12P subwoofer enclosure using a free-field measurement.

Given the roughly 1-cubic-foot volume of the enclosure, it’s no surprise that the response looks like it has energy focused around 70 Hz. Most would say that this system won’t deliver good low-frequency performance in a vehicle. They’d be wrong.

The graph below shows what happens to the subwoofer when placed against the back seat of a 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe midsize sport utility vehicle.

Subwoofer Equalization
The frequency response of the Rockford Subwoofer in the Santa Fe (red) and outside on the ground (blue).

There’s 9 dB of boost at 80 Hz and a mind-boggling 19 dB of boost down at 45 Hz. If you think that’s amazing, there’s more than 26 dB more output at 30 Hz. What looked like it might be boomy or peaky on paper now offers amazing extension down to below 30 Hz. It’s clear that the engineers at Rockford Fosgate considered the transfer function that happens when you put a small subwoofer in the relatively small confines of a car or truck.

Let’s Talk About Subwoofer System Equalization

We’re going to brew up a second example using a different amplifier and subwoofer. We dug out an old 12-inch Elemental Designs e12a.22 sub and connected it to one channel of the ARC Audio ARC1000.4 that the BestCarAudio.com team reviewed in early 2021. This amplifier has the IPS8.8 digital signal processor installed, and as such, we have 37 bands of fully parametric equalization available to fine-tune the subwoofer’s response. Let’s start with a baseline measurement of the subwoofer system with all the EQ bands flat.

Subwoofer Equalization
Frequency response of our 12-inch subwoofer in the back of a 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe with no equalization.

As is clearly visible, the 60 Hz dip evident in the measurement of the Rockford Fosgate subwoofer remains, and there are smaller dips at 26 and 37 Hz. Left alone, there’s more than 20 dB of variation between 43 and 63 Hz. That’s not what we’d call a smooth response in any sense of the term. It’s time to fire up the parametric EQ and do some tweaking.

After about 20 minutes of cutting and boosting on the subwoofer channel, we’d tamed the resonance at 43 and boosted the dips at 26, 37 and 63 Hz. With another 10 minutes, we could have the range between 36 and 37 even flatter and added some boost at 70 Hz, but we are within a 3 dB window from 21 Hz to 65 Hz, which is close enough for this example.

Subwoofer Equalization
The in-car frequency response (red) of our old Elemental Designs e12A.22 subwoofer after a little work with the ARC Audio IPS 8.8 DSP.

Upgrade Your Subwoofer System with a DSP Today!

The benefits of equalizing your subwoofer are clearly visible. Whether you are listening to a recording of a pipe organ with someone playing progressively deeper notes or you want to experience a bass drop in your favorite Skrillex track, equalization makes a huge difference. Reproducing different bass frequencies at different volume levels doesn’t accurately represent what was captured in the original recording.

Drop by your local specialty mobile enhancement retailer today to learn about the digital signal processing and equalizer options that are available to fine-tune the output of your car audio system. You’ll be amazed by how much better your car audio system will sound with proper calibration.

Let’s Talk About Car Audio Speaker Wire Size Requirements

Speaker Wire

Not too long ago, we stumbled across a discussion about the need for large-gauge car audio speaker wire to be connected to a high-power amplifier. The comments on the post were prime examples of how little some audio enthusiasts understand about the signals going to the speakers in their car audio system. So, to help as many people as possible understand the subject, we put together this article to explain why you don’t need 12-AWG wire for your tweeters.

Audio Signals – Amplitude and Frequency

The amount of voltage produced by your amplifier is dependent on the volume setting and the frequency content of the audio signal. Suppose you’re listening to a recording of an electric guitar. In that case, your amplifier will produce significantly less power than it would take to reproduce the lowest notes of a synthesizer or bass, even at the same perceived volume level.

Why do higher frequencies need less power to reproduce? Most of the sounds we hear follow the same approximate shape as pink noise. If you analyze the energy in a pink noise waveform, you’ll see that its amplitude attenuates at a rate of -3 dB per octave or -10 dB per decade as frequency increases.

Speaker Wire
The blue line in the graph above shows the frequency of pink noise. The green line is the energy content in Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky” averaged over the entire length of the track.

If you have a typical car audio system, then you may have a subwoofer or two to handle reproducing audio frequencies below 80 Hz, midrange drivers to handle the sounds from 80 to 3,500 Hz and tweeters for those frequencies above 3,500 Hz. The graph below shows the energy fed to the subwoofers, midrange drivers and tweeters using these crossover points.

Speaker Wire
In this graph, we show the audio energy going to the subwoofer (red), the midrange drivers (orange) and the tweeters (yellow).

It’s clear to see that the tweeters are receiving a lot less energy than the midrange drivers in the doors. In fact, it’s about 20 dB less at the highest level. If you had 100 watts going to the door speakers, your tweeters would only need 1 watt of power to keep up. In this example, the average amplitude of the signal going to the mids compared to the tweeters is 13.9 dB louder. So, you need about 4.1 watts for those tweeters if the mids are getting 100 watts. With nearly 5 dB more output required, the subwoofers would need 316 watts, assuming they had the same efficiency as the midrange speakers.

Power in Alternating Current Signals

A commenter in that thread wrote, “Yeah, but it’s AC, not DC,” as if to imply that an AC signal wouldn’t deliver as much current to the speaker. For pure sine waves, this with where the Root Mean Square (RMS) value comes in. An AC sine wave of, say, 10 volts RMS can do the same amount of work as 10 volts DC.

Music isn’t a single constant sinusoidal waveform. It varies in amplitude and frequency. As such, we need to look at an average level. To keep our example simple, let’s use 300 watts, 100 watts and 4 watts for the math involved in calculating how much power is lost due to the resistance of speaker cabling. We’ll also maintain the simplicity of the example by assuming all the speakers in the system have a nominal impedance of 4 ohms.

Current in Car Audio Speaker Wire

For our example, our 300-, 100- and 4-watt power levels translate to 8.66, 5 and 1 amp of current flowing through the respective speakers. Let’s use a piece of 12-AWG speaker wire with a length of 10 feet for our benchmark. If the speaker wire is full AWG spec and is made from pure copper, the 10-foot length will have a total resistance of about 36.3 milliohms. The voltage drop in the wire will be 0.314, 0.181 and 0.026 volts which, if my math is correct, represents a reduction in output of 0.157, 0.091 and 0.018 dB, respectively. In short, these differences aren’t going to be audible at anything other than when the volume is turned up all the way. At even one notch down, those reductions diminish significantly. With the dynamic characteristics of music, it’s safe to assume the average required power is 1/10 of the maximum.

What happens if we run 14- or 18-AWG wire instead of 12-AWG? The chart below shows the reduction in output at the most extreme cases with test tones being played. For your tweeters, it just doesn’t matter. For the mids, at full power, maybe there is a minute loss that might affect the balance of the system. Should you use 18-AWG speaker wire with your subwoofer? Probably not.

Speaker Wire

What happens at normal listening levels? Say you are commuting to work and the radio is on so you can hear traffic and news with the odd song thrown into the mix. With the typical midrange driver having an efficiency of 86-88 dB at 1W/1M, you are likely to be averaging a lot less than 1 watt of power to the doors. For argument’s sake, let’s say you are. To maintain the same relative output levels, the sub would be getting 3 watts and the tweeters are at 40 milliwatts. Our losses in the speaker wire drop to imperceptible levels of 0.063 dB on the woofers, 0.036 dB on the mids and 0.003 dB on the tweeters. Still worried about speaker wire size?

Let’s Look at More Subwoofer Math

Car audio companies seem to like to design car audio subwoofer amplifiers that produce their maximum power into low impedances. We’ve already looked at the sacrifices in amplifier efficiency and increases in distortion at low impedances in another article.

In short, for the same power delivery to the subwoofers, lower load impedances require more current to flow through a speaker’s voice coil. More current means more energy is wasted in the speaker wire due to its resistance. Let’s cook up another example – 750 watts into 4-, 2- and 1-ohm loads with 12-, 14- and 18-AWG speaker wire. Here are the results:

Speaker Wire

As you can see, this is yet another good reason to avoid amplifiers that require low load impedances to produce large amounts of power. OK, 750 watts through an 18-AWG conductor that’s 10 feet long is a pretty extreme example, but it punctuates the point pretty clearly.

In reality, you will never deliver full power to all the speakers in your car, save for maybe the subwoofer if you compete in SPL contents. In those cases, where tenths or maybe even hundredths of a decibel matter, having oversized speaker wire and amplifier power cable is impossible. Knock yourself out and have your installer run eight-AWG power cables to the subs! For the rest of us who listen to music at even modestly reasonable power levels, 14-AWG speaker wire is well more than adequate, and your tweeters don’t need anything over 18-AWG. Drop by your local specialty mobile enhancement retailer to find out about the audio upgrades that are available for your car or truck. Spend the money you’ll save on not buying monstrous speaker wire for your tweeters and midrange drivers on better speakers.
