Subwoofers Buying Tips
For best results, determine how much bass you want in your system. There is a balance between several competing benefits. Box size, amplifier power woofer cost and frequency extension. You can optimize any three of these benefits but not all four.

Smaller woofers are generally deliver faster, tighter response. Larger woofers can move more air and, as a result, play lower frequencies easier.

A decent woofer in the right box is 10 times better than a great woofer in the wrong box.

Always use the recommended enclosures for the subwoofers. This will yield the best possible frequency response and the most reliable system.

Make sure that your amplifier can handle (and is optimized) for the total impedance load for the system.
