[QUOTE="DarkScorpion, post: 6834930, member: 618537"] No, there is nothing you can simply "add" to that to make it any better. You'd be wasting your time and effort. Before you start flamed, here's a quick lesson in loudspeaker terminology. The word woofer in a casual sense usually refers to a speaker that's playing in the lower frequency range, such as 80-1000hz - a speaker playing in this range is mostly called a midbass (no longer just "woofer"). A [I]sub[/I]woofer is a speaker that's playing frequencies lower than what a woofer (midbass) would be playing; usually 80hz and lower (subbass frequencies). In this sense, the two have completely different purposes, and shouldn't be used interchangeably. A midbass and a subwoofer can come in [I]any[/I] range of sizes, so do not let this fool you into thinking they are easily interchangeable. However, a midbass CAN play into the subbass region, and vice versa, but like previously said, each prefers to play in its target range. [/QUOTE]
