Umehluko phakathi kwe-woofer ne-subwoofer ikakhulukazi ezicini ezimbili: Okokuqala, bathwebula i-Audio Frequency Band futhi bakha imiphumela ehlukile. Okwesibili umehluko wobubanzi bawo futhi usebenze ngohlelo lokusebenza olusebenzayo.
Ake siqale sibheke umehluko phakathi kwalaba bobabili ukuthwebula ama-audio band futhi udale imiphumela. I-subwoofer idlala indima engenakuphikwa ekwakheni umkhathi futhi ibuyisele umsindo oshubile. Isibonelo, lapho ulalele umculo, singasho ngokushesha uma isikhulumi sinomphumela osindayo we-bass.

Eqinisweni, umphumela we-bass esindayo akuyona into esizwa ngayo ngezindlebe zethu. Umsindo odlalwa yisipika se-subwoofer ungaphansi kwe-100 hz, engezwa yindlebe yomuntu, kodwa kungani singazizwa umphumela we-subwoofer? Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi ingxenye elalelwayo edlalwa yisipika se-subwoofer ingazwakala ngezinye izitho zomzimba womuntu. Ngakho-ke lolu hlobo lwe-subwoofer luvame ukusetshenziswa ezindaweni ezidinga ukudala umkhathi njengezinkundla zemidlalo yasekhaya, amashashalazi ama-movie kanye nezinkundla zemidlalo; I-subwoofer yehlukile kwe-subwoofer, ingabuyisela iningi lemisindo ephansi, okwenza umculo wonke usondele kumsindo wokuqala.

Kodwa-ke, ukuhunyushwa kwalo komphumela womculo akunamandla njenge-bass esindayo. Ngakho-ke, abathanda abanezidingo eziphakeme zomoya ngokuqinisekile bazokhetha ama-subwoofers.
Ake sibheke umehluko phakathi kwesilinganiso sokusebenzisa kanye neqhaza lalokhu. Ukusetshenziswa kwama-subwoofers kukhawulelwe. Okokuqala, uma uzofaka i-subwoofer kusipika, qiniseka ukuyifaka kusipika nge-tweeter nesipika samabanga aphakathi.
Uma ufaka kuphela i-tweeter kusipika, sicela ungafaki i-subwoofer phakathi. Isipika se-tweeter kanye ne-subwoofer sokuhlanganisa asikwazi ukubuyisela ngokuphelele umsindo, futhi umehluko omkhulu womsindo uzokwenza ukuthi abantu bazizwe bengakhululekile ezindlebeni. Uma isikhulumi sakho sifakwe i-tweeter kanye nesipika saphakathi nendawo, ungafaka i-subwoofer, futhi umphumela otholwe yisipika esinjalo esinjalo singokoqobo futhi sishaqise kakhulu.
