1) Different frequency response range


The frequency response range of the woofer is between 16-256Hz. Among them, 16-64HZ volume feels deep and shocking; 64-128HZ volume feels deep and vigorous, 128-256HZ volume feels rich.


The frequency response range of the midrange speaker is between 256-2048Hz. Among them, 256-512HZ volume feels powerful; 512-1024HZ volume feels bright; 1024-2048HZ volume feels translucent.


The frequency response range of the tweeter is generally between 5KHz-10KHz.


2) The edge material of the paper cone is different


The paper cone material of the woofer is rubber cone.


Most of the midrange speakers are made of paper loops.


Most of the tweeter paper cone are airtight.


3. Different function


The main function of the tweeter is to express delicate sound.


The midrange speakers are realistic, clean, powerful, and rhythmic.


The woofer has a strong sense of shock, majestic and powerful, plump and deep.



Extended information:


Woofers are generally not used alone, but combined with tweeters and midrange speakers to form a sound system. The sound is vibratory and low in frequency, which makes the human ears resonate and shocking. It is widely used in places such as KTV, bars, and stages.


The speaker is actually a conversion device that converts electrical energy into sound. When different electronic energy is transmitted to the coil, the coil generates a kind of energy to interact with the magnetic field of the magnet. This interaction causes the paper cone to vibrate as the electronic energy changes at any time. The coil of the speaker will move forward or backward, and the paper cone of the speaker will keep up. This action changes the density of the air and make sound.
