[Audio Knowledge] Eight Misconceptions in Car Audio Modification
2025-02-07

Car audio modification should be carried out step by step. Generally, start with changing the speakers, upgrading the power amplifier, adding sub - woofers for enhanced bass effect, and then replace the head unit. Arbitrary modification without considering reserved space will affect the audio effect. It's better to reserve room for future upgrades. There are many details to note in audio modification, and car owners should not modify their audio systems casually. Here are eight common misconceptions in car audio modification:



5. Soundproofing
Some people wonder if soundproofing is necessary. Regarding soundproofing, some think it has little effect, while others consider it essential. In my opinion, a good audio system is closely related to proper soundproofing. We all know that the same set of speakers may sound good in a demonstration cabinet, but why does the sound quality change completely when installed in a car? The answer lies in the "speaker box" effect. Soundproofing is to make the car door panel approximate the effect of a speaker box. Since sound is generated by vibration, without soundproofing, when the speakers vibrate, the car's metal sheet also vibrates, which cancels out a lot of low - frequency sound, thus greatly reducing the audio effect.
6. Original Car Audio
As we all know, no matter what kind of car it is, the main selling points are the car itself. There are cars like Mercedes - Benz that emphasize comfort, BMW that focuses on driving experience, and Volvo that highlights safety. However, no car is renowned for its excellent in - car audio system. Therefore, to achieve a better audio effect, modification is necessary. But how to modify it? It should be based on your personal needs. After all, we are the ones who enjoy the audio, not being controlled by the audio. Don't blindly follow others' advice. Remember to choose what suits you, not just the expensive ones.
7. Listening to Music via USB
The idea of using a USB drive to listen to music is quite common among ordinary people. However, for audio enthusiasts, it may seem a bit unconventional. But when it comes to listening to music, as long as you think it sounds good, that's fine. After all, CDs are not cheap these days. Although the sound quality from a USB drive is not as good, it offers a wider selection.
8. No Sound from Sub - woofer
In professional car audio modification, hearing the question "Why is there no sound from my sub - woofer?" is quite common. Pure low - frequency sound may not be as audible. In an audio system, different speaker units have different functions. Tweeters are responsible for high - frequency sounds, mid - range speakers for mid - frequency sounds, mid - woofers for low - frequency and some mid - frequency sounds, and sub - woofers for ultra - low - frequency sounds. Of course, there are more detailed frequency - response divisions. In a good audio system, the driver should not be able to hear or even sense the sound from the rear speakers.
