Why a Custom-Built Subwoofer Enclosure is a Good Investment

October 12, 2018 By Staff 2 Comments

Custom-Built Subwoofer EnclosureWhen it comes to recreating low-frequency information with accuracy and detail, a custom-built subwoofer enclosure from California Car Sounds and Tint in Campbell is the best way to add bass to your vehicle. We see a lot of enthusiasts choosing generic or off-the-shelf subwoofer enclosures for their vehicles. While these systems offer great value, more often than not, several performance aspects suffer compared to an enclosure that is constructed specifically for the speakers you choose and your needs. In this article, we’ll discuss the benefits of having our fabrication team construct a solution that is specific to your needs.

Designed for the Subwoofer you Choose

Custom-Built Subwoofer EnclosureFirst and foremost, there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all subwoofer enclosure. Each sub has a set of specifications called Thiele/Small parameters that describe the mechanical and electrical characteristics of the speaker. As no two sets of parameters are the same, the size of the enclosure and the tuning frequency (if it’s a vented design) need to be fine-tuned to the subwoofer you chose.

Our fabrication team has the software and training required to design and construct an enclosure that is matched perfectly to the speaker. This process ensures smooth frequency response, extended low-frequency output, excellent dynamics and great power handling. If any of these characteristics aren’t met, you may not be happy with the sound of your music.

Custom Subwoofer Enclosures Make Efficient Use of Space

Custom-Built Subwoofer EnclosureUnlike generic enclosures, the custom-built subwoofer enclosures we fabricate are designed specifically for your vehicle. Our team will measure the available space, then work with our design software to create a solution that looks amazing. With a custom enclosure, you’ll have more room for golf clubs, groceries, luggage, sports equipment or tools.

We can construct an enclosure that fits inside a spare tire or in the spare tire well of your sedan or hatchback. We can use storage compartments in sports cars, SUVs or Jeeps to create systems that are almost invisible once complete. We can even work with the space under your seats on in the footwell of a convertible to create an amazing system that provides incredible musical bass that needs to be heard to be believed.

Custom-Built Subwoofer Enclosure Cosmetics

Part of our design process includes integrating your subwoofer enclosure into the cosmetics of your vehicle interior. If your have black carpet in the trunk, we won’t use gray. We can apply custom finishes to your enclosure to enhance the looks and durability of the system to suit your needs. Vehicle-matching vinyl is popular in premium vehicles. We can add cosmetic accents like chrome or aluminum strips or even enhance the system with multi-color LED lighting. We use wood, plastics and fiberglass to optimize each project to ensure our clients get the performance and cosmetic integration they want.

Integration, Not Installation

The installation technicians at California Car Sounds and Tint are more than just amazing fabricators. The team has the tools and training to ensure that every aspect of your audio system upgrade is configured for optimum performance. From the location chosen for the subwoofer to the way crossovers are set on an amplifier or in a digital signal processor, our team analyzes the entire project and optimizes each aspect to work in harmony. The result is a mobile sound system that can rival the best studio or home audio systems for staging, imaging and realistic tonal balance.
