These speakers are the most common and are characterized by having a paper or plastic cone that vibrates to generate sound. They are easy to install, are usually affordable, and offer a generally balanced sound.
Compression Horns – These speakers use a metal diaphragm or other durable material that moves back and forth to produce sound. They are popular in high-end sound systems as they offer increased power and clarity in sound.
Tweeters – These speakers are designed to reproduce the highest frequencies of sound. They are usually small and installed on the front of the vehicle, on the door panels, or on the dashboard. They provide clear and detailed highs to improve the overall sound quality.
Woofers – These speakers are responsible for reproducing the lower frequencies of sound, such as bass. They are larger and capable of moving more air, which allows them to produce powerful and deep bass. Woofers are usually located in the back of the car or in the trunk.
Subwoofers – These speakers are dedicated solely to reproducing the lower frequencies, known as sub-bass. They are even larger than woofers and need their own speaker to function properly. Subwoofers are used to achieve a more intense bass output and improve the in-car audio experience.
It is worth mentioning that there are other variants of car speakers, such as mid, coaxial and surround sound systems.
They offer specific features and functions to suit individual preferences, so it’s important to consider the type of sound you want before purchasing a car horn.
