Presented in a fairly large assortment. This equipment differs from each other in the field of application (instrumental, concert, studio and others), according to technical specifications, body shape and many other qualities.
Most important parameter The one that needs to be considered first is the number of "lanes" in the system. According to this criterion, one-, three- and two-way acoustics are distinguished. How they differ from each other and which system is better, we will try to answer in this article.
sound frequency
Human hearing organs are capable of recognizing from 20 to 20,000 Hz.
Therefore, the quality of music directly depends on the ability of the equipment to create clear sound waves in a given range. To this end, the composition began to include speakers that reproduce extremely low (20-150 Hz), medium (100-7000 Hz) and high (5-20 thousand Hz) frequencies. As a result, there were:
- Single-way systems, where the entire frequency range is created by one speaker.
- Two-way acoustics, which has two speakers: one for playing music at medium and low frequencies, the second - only at high frequencies.
- Three-band equipment - a separate "column" is responsible for playing sounds in each range.
There is equipment with big amount bands, where each speaker reproduces sound in a certain way. The most popular are two- and three-way systems - they are the most affordable and provide at the same time excellent quality sound.
Advantages of two-way acoustics
Two-way Acustic systems are the most popular among motorists.
They provide optimum sound quality while affordable price. Due to the development of technology, two-way is being replaced by three-way equipment, but it is still common due to its advantages:
- Simple design that simplifies installation and configuration.
- A high degree of coherence between the speakers, which improves the sound quality.
- The most natural, "live" sound.
In two-way equipment, there are only two speakers - woofer and tweeter. The woofer reproduces sounds in the low and medium ranges, and the tweeter - only in the high. Due to this, simple crossover filters are necessary for the operation of the system.
Features of three-way equipment
Three-way acoustics differs from the already described system in better sound. The equipment in such systems is completed with a midrange speaker, which carries the so-called "spatial" information, creates surround sound. In addition, thanks to the separation of duties, the equipment has become more compact.
The negative quality of three-way systems is the high price. It is two to three times higher than that of two-way acoustics. Moreover, three-way acoustics involves the installation of crossovers - complex frequency filters. To set up such equipment, you must have excellent hearing, otherwise you will not be able to achieve consistency from the speakers.
Speaker Differences
Any speaker system consists of speakers (midrange, bass and treble), filtering equipment, signal amplifiers, audio cables and input terminals. Filtration devices are responsible for separating sound signal for multiple ranges. The two-way acoustics filter breaks the frequencies into two "sections" - up to 5-6 thousand Hz, and above 6 kHz. Three-way devices, as a rule, are equipped with crossovers - adjustable frequency filters that divide the sound range into three sections.
All acoustic equipment can be active or passive. In the first case, each speaker is equipped with a separate signal amplifier. This solution facilitates the matching of emitters and reduces the overall cost of the system. However, at the same time, the complexity of maintenance, installation and initial configuration increases. Separate amplifiers most often complement a set of three-way devices.
Coaxial and component speakers
How a three-way or two-way will sound largely depends on the type of speakers, which are coaxial and component. The first ones are a single monolithic structure, which combines emitters of high, medium and low frequencies. This solution makes the sound narrowly focused. Therefore, such devices are used as an addition and mainly in small cars.
Component speakers are speakers that can be placed in different places. This allows you to achieve surround sound, but the process of installing equipment becomes more complicated. In addition, at incorrect installation the soundstage will be very heterogeneous. installed in cars with a spacious interior.
A question of price
As noted earlier, two-way acoustics will cost much less than installing three-way equipment. This is due to two reasons:
- less equipment - only two speakers, a maximum of two amplifiers and one filter are required;
- simple installation - you can assemble such a system yourself, having elementary knowledge in the field of electricity.
Three-way systems include more sophisticated equipment, the cost of which is much higher than the price of conventional devices. In addition, if you decide to install such acoustics, you will have to seek the help of professionals - without special measuring devices and subtle hearing, the mounted system will sound the same as two-way acoustics. This is the main answer to the question of how two-way acoustics differ from three-way.
2-way acoustics in a car
The acoustic two-way system has long been very popular with motorists who appreciate good sound. Today clear competitor this acoustics is three-way, but the supporters of the old system still respect it and are not going to change it for anything.
In what way a two-way speaker system is better and why it is so loved, we will learn from this article, where, in addition, instructions will be given for quickly installing it in a car.
Advantages of two-way acoustics
As you know, all types of strip acoustics are divided into special classes. IN this case we are talking about the component and .
coaxial acoustics
- It implies the presence of two heads installed in the speaker housing. Advantages - low cost and ease of installation.
Component acoustics
- Two speakers are combined into one complete system that reproduces bass and high frequencies. The cost of such a system is much higher, which is understandable.
Front and rear speakers
In a car, as you know, it is still customary to install speakers depending on the direction of the sound.
- is, in principle, a setting in regular places speakers, that is, in the front doors. Everything would be fine and there would be no problems if the regular places were made in accordance with high-quality speakers.
But the fact is that on almost any car, these very places intended by the manufacturer for installing speakers are very small and designed for small speakers. - Front speakers take over essential function– Creation of the correct sound stage in the car. At the same time, its installation involves the use of special door linings, followed by a strong fastening of the speakers.
- Front acoustics usually involves installing speakers in the upper parts of the front doors.
- To achieve the best sound effect, 2-way acoustics should be mounted so that its elements are as close to each other as possible. It implies the installation of a woofer in the door, and a tweeter on the rack or dashboard of the car.
Advantages of front acoustics:
- Installation will be quick and easy.
- In the case of a 2-way system, there will be practically no difficulties during installation.
- On the other hand, installation in a door means that the speaker does not have a housing, which can negatively affect the sound quality. In this regard, craftsmen come up with various and original ones that enhance the sound effect from the speakers.
As mentioned above, the main thing in a car is rear acoustics. As for this system, it will serve as an additional sound effect.
So:
- The use of rear acoustics is justified, because the speakers in this case improve the overall background sound, making the sound picture much deeper.
- 2-way acoustics sound better, of course, in the front, but in the back in the trunk or on the speaker shelf, its mids will sound good.
- Installing the rear speakers also involves making a special acoustic shelf which makes the speakers sound better.
Installation of 2-way acoustics
So, as it became clear, a complete installation of 2-way acoustics in a car involves using it both in front and behind.
Front doors:
Note. For installation in the front doors, it is desirable to use 16 cm speakers.
- We purchase or make our own podiums for speakers.
Note. It is worth noting that the podiums themselves are unlikely to provide the speakers with strength. Therefore, a board is made separately for the podiums or special linings made of chipboard or plywood are placed under them.
- We are finalizing the doors, increasing the dimensions for installing 16 cm speakers. Also at this stage, a strong support is placed, which must be firmly screwed to the metal part of the door.
- We create an acoustic volume by sealing the door openings with masking tape. We paste over the adhesive tape with fiberglass cloth, which, in turn, is impregnated with epoxy glue.
- If the podiums are made independently, then you will first need to cut out rings with 4 ears from plywood. These same ears will be needed to mount the podium on the door.
Then we make 2 intermediate rings for each podium and assemble everything together, using spacers as well. - We fasten the podiums firmly to the door.
- We glue the door with vibroplast.
Note. The crossover can be installed next to door handle, because in this place he will be quite free to be (depending on the model of the car).
The instructions above will help you not to make mistakes when choosing and installing this speaker system with your own hands. During the installation process, it is recommended to study the photo and video materials.
As you know, the price of installing audio systems in a car is always high for professionals, so there is a reason to learn how to do everything yourself.
