Active and Passive Subs

[Ungas]

What's the difference between the two? Pros and cons of each might help me decide.

[ghosthunter]

di ba active & passive cross-over dapat?

[kimpOy]

in terms of home theater
active sub is a powered sub, have built in amp
passive, naka rely siya sa amp
not sure sa car audio
hope this help.

[IMm29]

yup, i think kimpOy's right, active sub is powered, while the passive sub needs an external amp. pros nung active sub, d mo na kelangan ng external amp, so you can fit it in tight/relatively remote spaces. cons nung active sub, hindi sya sing lakas nung passive sub, so if you want boom-boom, don't get an active sub.

pag sa mga ready made subs mas maganda ang active dahil may sarili syang control and mas malakas

ot san ba icoconnect ang active sub sa hu sa front or rear out pag d ka maglalagay ng amplifier and coaxials lang

[Ungas]

ghosthunter::: I had no idea where it should connect to, I just read it somewhere in our audio forums.

For car audio SQ setups, which would you consider an active or passive subs?

[notEworthy27]

pag sq kasi quality ang habol hindi naman kelangan ng ganon kalakas, IMO.so i'd say passive. setup na!!! plug ako! punta ka kay intense. galing yun!

[kimpOy]

correct si leon275 ng KAC naka isang sub lang sa likod ng REVO
minsan kahit hindi naka fulll blast ang sub niya ok lang sobrang lang kasing baba ng bass lalo ng ibang tunes.

in SQ roundness ang habol not the boom boom

[fierari]

passive ka na...........


bitin ang active..........

[kimpOy]

he..he
baligtad, sa home theater mas ok ang active.

[Ungas]

Then passive it will. :D

Na-audition ko kasi yung sa pinsan kong naka Kicker L5 SPL setup, nayaning bunbunan ko sa loob.

sir dapat yun hu mo may ready for subs output para dun mo lang ikabit and coaxial is for the rear..................

but if you set up your sounds na pang SPL it will be too heavy for offroading and it will occupy the whole of the rear. may chance na mabasa. para dual purpose mag passive ka na lang so that you can disconnect it pag mag off road ka especially kung may water fording.

[Ungas]

Nah, lipas na ako sa SPL setups. Di kakayanin ng baga ko yung kalabog, hehehe.

Tama, passive na nga lang para madaling baklasin incase may byahe.

[ARB]

i suggest that you get DLS Iridium fronts 6.5" two way. i dont know if it will fit. the safari have thin door panels. but if it fits i strongly recommend them. or you can make a custom side panel for it then get the 3 way. you will not regret it.

[Ungas]

Di kasya 6.5" yung nakakabit nga na Pioneer TS-C130R 13cm woofer sa side muntik na tumukod sa window brackets.

If only I could find who sells DLS Iridium here in Banawe and sell my existing speakers.

[ARB]

winterpine or wintersnow sells the DLS speakers. or we can ship one there to you.

[IMm29]

Ungas,
Mukhang spacer ang katapat nyan, para d tumukod sa mga window brackets. Also, try researching on thin separates, yung hindi malalim ang mounting requirements.

Sa rear out ang active sub, dahil nasa likod ang subwoofer.;)

[Ungas]

ARB::: I'll try to check Winterpine out, dun din pala binebenta yung amps na balk ko kunin.

IMm29::: They did place MDF cut spacers along with my current speakers mount. Hinay-hinay lang sa gastusin di ko pa nauumpisahan, hehehe. I want it to look simple and dull at first glance para di matakaw sa paningin ng magnanakaw. :D
