Vehicle Subwoofer with Box
Achieve a deeper bass with an enclosed subwoofer in a box. Subwoofers in a box can not only provide a deeper sound than those without, but you’ll enjoy the added benefit of saving space inside your vehicle by placing it where it benefits you most. Enclosed subwoofer drivers are more powerful, louder, and have higher sound quality than their unenclosed counterparts.
Drive-In Autosound has pre-loaded, enclosed subwoofer boxes and ported subwoofers from Rockford Fosgate, JL Audio, Alpine and more top brands. Our 10-inch subwoofer boxes and 12-inch subwoofer boxes are excellent universal sizes that fit most cars and trucks. Get an 8-inch subwoofer box for a compact car — or pick up dual 8-inch subwoofer enclosures to fill a big vehicle with a bigger sound. We also have powered subwoofer boxes, a space-saving design that has a mono amplifier inside the enclosure.
Types of Subwoofer Boxes
You’ll find three primary subwoofer enclosure types depending on the exact sound you want. Sealed subwoofer boxes are the simplest and most compact option, as they require less amplifier power, making them a popular choice amongst car audio enthusiasts. The sealed design allows for tight, accurate bass response with a well-defined sound.
Ported boxes have a hole or port to allow the movement of air in and out of the enclosure. This design offers increased efficiency and can result in louder, deeper bass output compared to sealed boxes. Also known as vented subwoofer boxes, they are ideal for those seeking a booming bass, as they are designed to emphasize low-frequency extension. However, they require more power to achieve their maximum potential.
Finally, bandpass subwoofer boxes are hybrids of the sealed and ported versions. They have two different chambers; the subwoofer driver is housed in the sealed rear box and the port is in the front box. It offers the biggest boom and deepest sound possible for people who are serious about bass. The downside is that bandpass enclosures take up more space and put more strain on the speaker.
