Woofer VS Subwoofer
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- Some people messaging me have been wondering whether the woofer I have would be able to replace my subwoofer, the one I use for my home theatre etc, so I tested it out.
The specs of the woofer would suggest it isn't made for this, but obviously I'm going to "be dumb" about it and test it like I have no idea what specs mean.
Also it might help to have the correct size box for the speakers in question and not do a 'one for all' type thing like this.

Woofer:woof woof!
Subwoofer:WOOOOOOOOF WOOOOOOOOOOOOOF
Me:good doggies!
Edit: thanks for the likes!
Nice

@@xsavian5234 lol nobody care
U a kid duiiii
The woofer had good lows too
My sub is my pet. Taking care of her and feed her lots of power. She’s so cute 🥰
Wow
Me to i have a 2/3cm subwoofer and its one of my pets
It give egg to you🤣🤣
what did you name it? I have two subwoofers named Colorado and Yes.
My sub is a boy
9:10 that low was cool
No one:
Subwoofer: lemme sit back down i dont want to be taken out
She ain't lazy lol. She wanna bump
Various rattles (solved)
Subwoofers+windows=UNFRIEND :)
My woofer is also unfriended with the windows xd
@@tudoautomotivo2150 :)) Also the quality sound heard through headphones + youtube codec brings other audiophile frustrations. You can advertise on the best audio enclosures, but if you don't listen to them LIVE, it's a lost cause. Not to mention two people who perceive audio frequencies differently.
@@invidios yes, some people like woofer and anothers subwoofer
Those SMD subs are awesome just never thought anyone would use one for home audio.
Car subs are great for home audio because they have beefy motors for cheaper. I always swap car subs into my powered home subwoofers. Often use RE Audio or kicker because they dont need a ton of power to work
I use homeaudio in cars some times
@@myfavoritecolorisclear i agree
@@alexanderlundmark5079 that was my first system lol. Good ole Fisher tower speaker
`the folded surround on your woofer usually means it is more of a mid bass for larger rooms. The fold does not allow for as much excursion of the driver but maintains better control.
my unclu has folded surroundings in his double 18 inch woofer and they can reach 24hz with no problems and no ratteling so you can use folded surroundings plus they are quality woofers not woofer to use for pure bass
I have 12 inch loudspeakers/ woofers they have the folded surround and they still give 1/3-1/5 or a third of an inch or half inch excursion
A woofer is a dog and a subwoofer is a big dog
Always noticed that when airflow is constricted, Sub-woofers move more and woofers move less.
Back in the old days you didn't need a sub, most stereo hi-fi speaker systems could cover the entire frequency range without needing help from a sub. Modern woofers are crap and don't produce much bass at all so they need help from a sub, but old-school Woofers (70's & 80's, even some of the 60's ones) easily could go all the way down to the frequencies that modern subwoofers produce.
CoolDudeClem that’s the truth for me bro. Old days vs Modern days.
That's the truth
The 70s and 80s were when sound was a main selling point and so there were a lot of good speakers in everything, even older laptops have better speakers than stand alone speakers nowadays!
@@braydenhancock3907 That;s why I bought a lot of old component bookshelf speakers and it sounds great
Sick beat! I'm using it to blow some speakers on my UA-cam channel.
And the funny thing is that's been through a camera, must be a good camera mic.
The woofer doesn't makes loud bass. The subwoofer blows up your ears!!!!!
What about outdoors??
Levi machaa outdoors, most subs will not be audible. But woofers will. Some frequencies need some resonating sorroundings. They work like echoes. But in free air, they'll just move up n down.
@@Assistingalways I have a party speaker Sony MHC V 82d and it has 12" woofer. It shakes the room and outdoors it produces huge bass. I have a home-theatre with a 8" Sub which shakes the room alright but doesn't have any effect outdoors. Indoor the party speaker wins in bass also. So in my case the woofer wins over the sub in producing bass.
Rajib Lochan Panda yes. But it's between subwoofer and a woofer. Some frequencies are only audible based on the enclosure tune, and the excursion of the diaghragm. So generally subs will go very low depending on your room to. But woofers are for spl. Minimum excursion with massive enclosures that beat box rise. If you want good quality music subs will do. But if you want to listen with your neighborhood to, woofers will.

Why worry about the neighbours? I always thought you lived in a house so they shouldn't be a problem?
u wot m8
You can hear my subwoofer from a quarter mile away.
because I'm considerate and I don't live in *that* type of neighbourhood.
I live in a house, let me tell you the neighbours can hear when I crank up a PA designed for 800 people outdoors

What could be a good amplfier for home audio.. not to expensive and 4 channel +70 watt
Check out some Rockville home audio amps. I have one that puts out 150 watts times 4 and I'm having a hard time finding speakers that will handle it. Super powerful. It was only 150 dollars. I also have a 500 watt dedicated sub amp for lows also Rockville. They make a lot of good stereo equipment for home/dj and cars.
@@alfa7108 sounds good ;p I have 2 awsome diy 100 Watt 8 ohm speakers.. and a little old amp that is not really what I want so I wil find a better one and sell this one for new
Lol i use my 5.1 surround sound Amp. 110 watts for normal drivers and 350 watts for sub, not bad
Sony S Master STR-KS1000
Stereo receiver or jus an dedicated amp?
Maybe do a car vs pa Subwoofer comparison with one of these in the future:
18S 18NTLW5000
B&C 18IPAL
BMS 18N862
Depending on the pa speaker would be louder than the car sub but the higher notes would be more clear on the car sub due to more major overlapping. The pa would definitely handle low notes better
The car subwoofer is designed for smaller enclosure sizes, with the output compensated with more power.
The PA subwoofer is designed for larger more efficient enclosures, to get the most sensitivity per watt as possible.
Any comparison regarding sound quality or frequency range will vary on a sub by sub, and/or enclosure by enclosure basis.
The big difference is efficiency.
Pro audio 18’s like Peavy lowriders have 97.3b sensitivity. 4 inch voice coils with tighter gaps, a cone that weights 198grams and handles 800con/1600pro/3,200peak Cost $225
A sundown zv5 has a 88db sensitivity. 3 inch coil 450gram cone and handles 2000watts rms. Cost $1000
It will take the sundown about 3 times as much power to produce the same SPL. Because it has a heavy cone and a less efficient gap.
The Pro audio sub will sound better, and be louder dB/watt vs dollar spent.
18sound sibs are very good and their midrangr and hogh drivers too
With TD class PA
the song on soundcloud was a bit different from this one
I love strong bass!! 🔥
PA Woofer vs Subwoofer.... Good comparison....
PA Subwoofer vs Car Audio Subwoofer probably would have been a better comparison.
I thought there was just going to be a puppy getting a massage from a subwoofer.
He played us like a damn fiddle
Lol, ive seen that vidoe, its on utube someware., I think it was with a cat though?🤔
doing my usual sunday zig-zag thru a neighborhood looking for flatscreens and stuff, i found an Infinity PS_10 on the curb,, i asked the guy in the yard if it worked.. he said "not really". so i pulled it apart and changed a 16v 330 uf cap, with and upgrade to a 25 volt and it sounds great... now if i can get the floorboards and walls to stop the rat-eling noises i'll be in business. and i snagged a yamaha a/v reciever{rca plugs} i need to test out. but the best part was the sharp remote control i've been needing for the 70 inch flatscreen a friend delivered to my place{free} that basically just needs internal adjustments in the menu, which works better having a remote. i tried it a few times without the remote, but everytime the power was interupted, i had to reset the adjustments.
Woofer = wooofis 🔈🔉
Subwoofer = 🌋🌋🔊
Where I'm from you by law can make as much noise as you like until 10pm.
Show me what the sub can really do man
I broke my sub when trying to plug my phone into my amp and ripped the foam around the edge now it sound rubbish
i actually feel bad for you cuz that happened to me twice
Before plugging ur phone into the amp,DO NOT turn on the amp first.I always do that so my speakers wont blow up
My woofer: aww I'm all lonely
My subwoofer: OHHH YEAHH GIVE ME THE POWER IF U WANT ME TO HIT THE BASS!!!!!!!
i got 4 eminence 15s that go down to 30 hz for 150 us bills
You obviously don't have enough power to push that sub lol
You obviously haven't been here before :D
@@MyStonerMind420 I have, I haven't been here for a while though 👀 work and all
Me just combine it create 4 way or 6 way speaker
Hey bro if you buy another cheap 18 and mount it clamshell style face to face over the first cheap 18, it will play the lows wayyyy better
Edit:be sure to wire them out of phase in a push-pull configuration.
thanks man I'll keep that in mind
If you want to test these speakers, you need to play some Jamaican DRUM AND BASS
Thanks for that like. Thanks
Just play the I love you bass test on UA-cam
My standard woofers are sort of usable as a sub cos they are so fat (unlike your PA "med" driver). But I'm using the $50 Jaycar woofers as stereo speaker standard woofers and even at fairly low volume my 10" woofers were excurting like 1/8" with that low bass note and I could feel it move with my hand on the cone, with that low note (not too many hz). Now how do you get a camera mic that good? Wow!
All speaker type's have there pros and cons tweeters woofers subwoofers mid range wide range full range all speakers are made for different jobs but you people have your opinions facts are facts opinions is wut you like and wut you don't like but if you say woofers are better than subwoofers then that's your opinion it's coffee time and it's time for me to relax good day.
So what was the result?
I'm listening on my phone and they all sound the same because i only have my phone speaker FFS
The subwoofer most definitely can produce lower frequencies, deeper bass. I only listened on a $100 portable Bluetooth speaker and could still tell the difference.
@@AnthonyGoodley
Wow almost like it was made to play lower frequencies....
Woofers are meant for larger rooms, like PA audio setups
Sry i was being a bit sarcastic... a sub woofer will play lower bass than a woofer... yes that's why it's called a SUB-Woofer...
FFS
Woofer is actually a mid-bass and subwoofer driver, it's not solely dedicated to sub bass. That's the only difference between the two. Sub bass is any frequency between 20-80hz.
wow,that woofer moves more than i expected
Subwoofers are best bc you get alot of bass and i moves more and lookes cool i like: PSI and GAS.
im just always watching these vids with sub woofer cuz fun XD door and windows shake as hell
God id love to have an smd 15" or "18 !!!!
Did you know that one night I was home alone and got a new subwoofer I didn’t know it will shake the whole neighbourhood but I just turned it out at mid night and blasted get low from DJ Snake with full volume, the next day my neighbours were looking at me funny, and I remembered what is did.
Every now and then I turn mine on and my neighbor looks at me as I drive by but hes had them so he cant say anything lol
i sugest you use the subwoofer for the lows. i tried once to use a woofer and the cone riped off of the flexible things at the top.
ah yeah, I don't know if I need a subwoofer in that case. it seems to be just rumbling noise that'll go straight through my floor and walls into the apartment complex haha.
Damn that’s skinny ahh wire I use 12 gauge wire for a Onkyo 8inch I built a custom box for
Put a 4 inch or 6 inch driver in the box , not for a serious video but for some quality lols
I was thinking about that, but I'd have to place the speaker onto some wood and fasten the wood to the box too.
Unless I can hover the speaker over the 18" hole cause I have no wood lying about. I don't fancy drilling more holes into that SMD box though.
My Stoner Mind make a cutout that matches . Or just use double sided tape it’s only for a video
yeah totally, I just don't have any wood wide enough lying about to do it with
My Stoner Mind cardboard haha
@@TheTechGuyYT lmao
Subwoofer is the best 👌
I'm believe to sub woofer because this is a Long base,cold base or any volume hardbase or Low base is the best subwoofer
fellow hashman
Good pa subwoofers go above 150 hertz without trouble giving much nicer more open surround sound, these car type subwoofer barely hit above 100/150 hertz
In a car it can add a wide soundstage to. cost more energy tho cus most of them probly be above 4ohms.
Anyway what im trying to say is that those type of pa subwoofers are kinda like a very good woofer that goes extremely low plus semi woofer (sorta like a better done version of a logitech "sub"WOOFER! :D)
Nice video anyway im always into just testing random tunes with weird unusual cabinet/speaker mixup
Hmm, I'll have to try the track, as my 2.1 PC speakers were making a fair effort
And it is absolutely non-directional, I know the sub (if you can call it that) is under the desk, but all the sound seems to be staged where the pair are
A jbl Xtreme woofer moves more than this woofer in the video
Subwoofer is much better I like more That bass speaker is an old solution And technology it is no longer used anywhere I'll take the Subwoofer, let the others take the woofer Subwoofer Is the best
that is the speaker wire you are using? try 12 gauge better bro :)
12 gauge for speaker cable?? That's a great idea. It would act like a natural low pass filter
@@lowerthetone actually more current flow and low down the resistance of the cable 😊
@@CoquiAudio I got a pair of cerwin vega re 25s for 80$ they need a refoam but thats it good deal or
Me just combine woofer and subwoofer that's it
Could I have a question? Where are You from? Because your English is Very different and interesting, I hear different pronunciation from English what I usually hear :)
I live in England, in the north. There are a few variations of the English accent in the UK ;)
Also what subwoofer do you have
that woofers from the busker-10 or the busker-12 or the busker-15 which i wanna buy
I actually had a magnent seperate from the basket from lightley dropping the box on the corner on the floor lol

Hey! What spectrum analyzer is that? It looks SICK!!
Called my chiuahaha a subwoofer....
She scratched my eyes out....
all i could understand was this and that and this but cool video i guess
Some ot people sound 200.4 8000kw RMS PEAK 8 OHM ?
Could have bumped the sub on a sick song for a second to knock it loose🧐
yeah I tried it the other day, doesn't work. Maybe I'll show it in a video at some point but probably not
Yeet
Try the brazilians woofers there are ones with 4250 rms or almost 5k
Subwoofer is heaps better
thanks for explaining, i choose woofer - les harm for my stomach
Woofer designed to paly mid and low where as sub is designed to play low
hahahaaa, nice comparison but: woofer = low-mid good for mid-bass, subwoofer = low frequency driver good for 100hz below, therefore they are different beasts at all.....
Torpengpogi
Eggsactly!
And some people say you cant have a Woofer and subwoofer at the same time and that’s ignorant because in concerts for example, they do that all the time.
personally never known anyone that's said you can't use both at the same time, but if someone around me WAS to say that, they would receive a much deserved face palm.
Also to the original comment, the difference is painfully obvious, read the description of the video.
This was just a simple non technical video meant for a couple of people in my instagram DM's, lol.

Lol @ facepalm.
I’m constantly giving that to many on Facebook. 🤣
You forgot the impedance ratio +or- 5%THD harmonic distortion ratio .Together with the amp hertz rating impedence to the speaker wattage holding power.😊
I love the bass swells in that track.

4:54 He finally got a drill!!
I tried to do this awhile ago out of boredom it was a fail sounds terrible
Yeare ago I took a cheap 10" Dayton audio classic series woofer placed it in a .94 cubic foot box with heavy poly fill & crossed it over at 50hz with a 48db low pass crossover I built. Let me say this... I was able to pump 300rms per 10 where as it was rated at 50rms. I was able to litterly make my doors, windshield & back of the cab flex with two of them... A woofer can be made to hit hard without damage. Someone will say thats impossible blah blah blah but ya never know till you try using the knowledge you have and try to learn as well... Of course it waa no sub but damn kick drums & yes rap music just slammed in there. Megadeths cryptic writings bass lines sounded just nuts...
Did you measure 300watts? Volume level all the way up?
@@lowerthetone The amp bench tested at 602watts mono into 4ohms @14.4 volts. In car it tested a little shy of that around 590... Volume turned up to the point of just under the amp clipping.
For a sec I thought this was a clip from "Peep Show"
Wow I just found out that an woofer and sub woofer is not the same
Instrumental woofer is for old folks
What the subwoofer I actually turn my volume up for a second and it started making my nose wiggle
Ohhh lawd, them skinny ass lil speaker wires for a real baddass sub like a smd 18?!?!? Get you some ofc 8ga skyhigh
I have 8, I don't need to use it.
@@MyStonerMind420 yeah I run nothing but 8g skyhigh for speaker wire!
How is the subwoofer floating in time stamp 2:50?

did you medium density plywood to make the box , they have some other low fibrous light weight wood for that.
Songs name?
Can the (Car) Sub woofer perform better out door?
compare this subwoofer against a B&C 18SW115 NEO
i thought when he said electric drill he was going through a electric test
low motion before it was released
In brazil woofers made for 60-120hz can trigger car alarm more easily than subs, Not to mention that you feel the bass from afar, since the subwoofers you go 10 meters away and you only hear the voice.
They sound alike just the woofer has a weird noise coming out from the diaphragm. But it's evident that the subwoofer is much more punchier than the woofer. Ofc. lol
Woofer great for IMax vs subwoofer good for cars
If you crossbreed a woofer and a subwoofer, you get a superwoofer so you can have nice mains speakers that subwoof in addition to woof, squawk, and tweet. It will have a very similar design to a competition car subwoofer but, with a cone stiff enough to cross it over to the mids at 375Hz or higher without distortion and a shorting ring for accurate upper bass so you can have single woofer floorstanding speakers that have a lot of excursion, deep thunderous bass, and no distortion in the upper bass frequencies.
I think I have a cross breed woofer because it says hybrid dual woofer
It's Sony MHC wz88d
I luv my W7.... She's a pretty sounding beast

I have a pair of 10 and a half inch subs and a mini sony hi-fi system they don't go together, but when I use them together, the mid bass the speakers play rattles the cabinets, the lows rattle the windows.

So my sub is powered. If I toss a speaker in it will it sound ok for midrange? Or is the amplifier geared more towards lows?
