Alot of people aren’t really familiar with what a sub woofer (also known as a woofer) really is or what it does. Part of that is because of how relatively new sub woofers are to people. Speakers have been around since the 1800′s. Sub woofers, however have only been around since 1960. Sub woofers are a great way to bring your music to life. Normal speakers are physically incapable of producing the lower frequencies that a sub woofer can. Could you imagine going to a rock concert, but the kick drum was broken? It’s like a part of it is missing (because it is). Thats what listening to music without a sub woofer is, part of your music is missing. Wouldn’t you like to get it back?
One of the easiest way to identify what a sub woofer can do to enhance your music is to think about your home theater system (or if you don’t have a home theater think about a concert or movie theater). Turn your home theater system on. Start enjoying some music or watching your favorite movie. After a few minutes, simply turn the sub woofer off or disconnect it. You’ll notice a HUGE DIFFERENCE IN SOUND, and I promise you, it won’t be for the better. Turning it back on will literally bring your music back to life!
So, why subject yourself to this same experience in your car? We all drive nearly 25 hours per week. Don’t you truly want to enjoy it? Don’t you want to hear all of your music? Of course you do! We all want good music, sometimes we simply don’t know what good music is and no matter what your taste a sub woofer should be part of this. If you like alot of bass, PERFECT. If you only want a little bit of bottom fill (means filling in the gaps the other speakers leave in your sound), we’ll have a sub woofer package to fit your needs!
Sub woofers come in a variety of shapes and sizes. They typically start out as small as an 8″ Sub (there are exceptions to this) and they
range up to, on average, a 15″ Sub (there are some 18″ on the market as well as even a 32″). The way each size re-produces sound is completely different than the others. Typically, the larger the sub woofer the lower the note it’ll play, however there is a trade-off. 15″ & larger sub woofers typically don’t sound very good at all to the average listener. They are loud, but the sacrifice is in the quality of the sound.
If you think your sound system just might be missing something, there is a good chance that, that something is a sub woofer. We can install a sub woofer to give you that subtle little extra that your other speakers just don’t have or of course if you like a little bit more umph that average then we can do something a little bit bigger and ornate. sub woofers are such a powerful in car experience that alot of vehicle manufacturers have begun placing sub woofers factory installed in vehicles. Of course, since they contract it out to the lowest bidder, its not quite the same as a quality audio upgrade.
Into shows and competition car audio? No problem! We can build stealth oem style systems where the sub woofers are completely hidden from view, or a decked out high end car audio and sub woofer system that will make your friends just drool at one sound (and look). Unlike our competitors whose attention is stretched so thing, we building custom car audio systems day in and day out. You don’t need to worry about when you will get your car back. We have more than enough staff to help all of our customers and get our larger car audio systems built and done right! And this is important, because a poor install means a poor sound in your vehicle and there really isn’t a point in spending alot of money on a competition car audio system and it just sound FLAT.
We carry some of the best brands of sub woofers in the industry including: JL AUDIO,
ROCKFORD FOSGATE, KICKER,
CERWIN VEGA, MTX, ALPINE, KENWOOD and more! And because we carry a variety of brands IN STOCK, you can be assured that you will truly be getting the BEST sub woofer for your money, not simply the one that the sales guy carries. We carry them all allowing our sales people to give you an

And don’t forget about the amplifier for your sub woofers. Sub woofers don’t hook up like a normal speaker does and requires more power in order to produce quality sound. This is what a sub amp is for. They are commonly found as 2 channels or mono amps. But don’t worry. We carry matching amplifiers, accessories and all other audio components allowing you to get a complete MATCHING SYSTEM. And a matching system doesn’t just mean it’s the same brand. It’s DESIGNED AND ENGINEERED to work together and sound the best.
