Satellite Radio More Popular Among Boat Owners Than Vehicle Owners

As advanced technologies in marine audio systems become increasingly popular, new-boat owners are more likely to subscribe to satellite radio than new-vehicle owners, according to the J.D. Power and Associates 2007 Marine Audio Report released yesterday.

The report measures owner satisfaction with the audio systems supplied in their new boats in seven segments: fiberglass bass boat; pontoon; coastal fishing (17 ft. to 28 ft.); ski/wakeboard; small runabout (16 ft. to 19 ft.); large runabout (20 ft. to 29 ft.); and express cruisers (24 ft. to 33 ft.). Six areas are examined to measure overall satisfaction: sound clarity; location of speakers; ability to hear the stereo at cruising speed; effectiveness of CD anti-skip mechanism; radio reception; and ease of using the controls.

what is a subwoofer?

What is a Subwoofer?
A subwoofer is a type of loudspeaker that reproduces the lowest bass notes in the music. Basically, its a one-trick pony delivering bass with authority and nothing else. Doing that requires lots of power and a specially designed speaker with some key empirical measurements that should be maximized.

"What are some of those measurements that I should look out for?" you might ask. Well, let's see:

• Impedance: As we talked about in the previous article on speakers, impedance is the resistance to the flow of electric current. Higher impedances are easier for an amplifier to "drive," or power. Lower impedances or speakers wired in parallel are harder for your amplifier to handle.
• Materials: These are what your "drivers," or speakers are made of. The actual sound-producing cone can be made from any of a multitude of materials. The cone needs to be stiff, yet lightweight. Better materials are Kevlar or polypropylene. Metal cones are good but they tend to be more expensive to do correctly. Another area of concern is the "surround" material. This is the stuff that attaches your driver to the "bucket," or metal frame holding the speaker. Surrounds should be light and flexible, but strong. Good surround materials are rubber or composites, such as plastics.
• Free-Air or Boxed enclosure: This is how the sub is to be mounted. Free-Air enclosures have the sub speaker mounted to the back seat, or the rear shelf, using the trunk area as the enclosure. Free-air systems save space and have flat frequency response. The sub speaker needs to be designed for this purpose. For best performance, the trunk should be air-tight when closed. Boxed enclosures have the speaker mounted within a box with or without a "port" or a tuned bass opening. The port size and the box's volume (in cubic feet), needs to be matched to the speaker.
• Sensitivity: As with other speakers, this value tells you how efficiently a speaker converts electrical energy into sound. The higher the number, the louder the speakers will play at any given volume setting. Efficient speakers help you maximize the performance of your amp.
• Frequency Response: With subwoofers, you want the frequency response to go as low as possible. The human ear can hear approximately 20-20,000 hertz. Bass frequencies are usually considered 20-2000 hertz approximately. Look for subs that can extend frequency response down as close to 20 hertz as possible.
• RMS Power Range: As with other speakers, this is the range of continuous power the speaker requires to operate properly. Expressed in watts, RMS Power Handling refers to the amount of power a speaker can handle on a continuous basis. The RMS power range figure is a reliable way to rate and compare different speakers.
• Peak Power Output: Again, peak power handling refers to the amount of power a speaker can handle during a brief musical burst.
• Volume Acoustic Suspension: This is the volume of air having the same acoustic compliance ("stiffness") as the speaker's suspension, measured in cubic feet or liters. Lower numbers are better.
• F_s: The frequency at which a speaker naturally resonates in free air, measured in hertz, lower numbers are better.
• X_max: This is the measure of a speaker cone's maximum excursion in one direction while maintaining a linear (non-distorting) behavior. This is measured in millimeters, and larger numbers are better.

Car Screens are here to stay

Car TV screens

A television in a car has been relatively uncommon, until now. With many technological advances, the assumption of an in-car TV as being bulky with bad picture quality has all been eliminated. With screens sizes ranging from 2 to 15 inches and as thin as a quarter inch, it allows a lot of flexibility when installing. It is also common to see car tv monitors installed in the back of headrests, in the sun visors of a car, or on the ceiling of a vehicle.

The quality of the TVs is also at its highest, capable of displaying crystal clear images, while also becoming more and more affordable for the average consumer. And because car tv is not offered in factory entertainment systems, aftermarket systems are typically the best choice for people who are looking for the best in mobile entertainment

How to Install Subwoofers in Your Car

Most car manufacturers do not include subwoofers with the factory stereo system. The process of installing them can be complicated, so avoid hassle by purchasing a prefabricated enclosure box equipped with subwoofers.

Instructions

• STEP 1: Strip out the carpeting from the trunk and clean the metal surface.
• STEP 2: Take sound-deadening material (Dynamat or Accumat), and heat it with a heat gun or hair dryer or just leave it out in the sun to heat.
• STEP 3: Spray glue on the metal surface of the trunk, peel the back off the Dynamat or Accumat and apply the material to the metal surface. Use the heat gun or hair dryer to continue heating as you apply.
• STEP 4: Using a roller, press the material onto the metal so that it bonds with the surface.
• STEP 5: Replace the carpeting.
• STEP 6: Reconfigure the speaker hookups on your four-channel amplifier so that the front and rear speakers already in the system are using the two front channels of the amplifier. The front channels of the amplifier should have a high-pass crossover to work these speakers.
• STEP 7: Bridge the rear channels of the amplifier into mono so that the amplifier will supply twice the power. The instructions that came with the amplifier will show you how to do this.
• STEP 8: Wire the two subwoofers into the amplifier using 12-gauge speaker wire. The rear channel of the amplifier should have a low-pass crossover.
• STEP 9: Test to see what the best crossover point is for the subwoofers.
• STEP 10: Use metal L brackets to brace the enclosure. Secure the box to the floor, a wall or the rear deck. Be sure to place silicone around the bracket so that air will not leak from the box.

Tips & Warnings

• Play around with the positioning of the subwoofer box in the trunk to get the sound you want. You may find it best to point the box so that the subwoofers are aimed toward the rear or toward the interior of the vehicle. When pointing toward the rear, the sound wave has a longer distance to travel, and you get more bass as a result.
• To test for the best crossover point for the subwoofers, set the low-pass crossover of the amplifier at 100 Hz and play something on your system. Watch the movement of the subwoofers. The lower the crossover-point frequency, the less movement on the subwoofers. Watch to see whether the subwoofers are moving too much and listen to the music to determine whether there is distortion. Most systems run at 85 or 80 Hz.
• Before you place the L brackets, check to see what is on the other side of the surface you will be screwing into. You don't want to cut a gas line or wire.
