Hey I did some searching but came up empty...Audio isnt exactly my thing but I'm trying to get more knowledgeable in it....

My question is, whats the difference between a component speaker and a regular speaker? also whats a coaxial speaker? what is the purpose of a cross over?

If anyone has any links, please feel free to send them my way...thanks.

haha,at first i thought that said Car+ Audio+ ***....woulda been funny.

 

alright a component set usually consists of a high range and a mid range speaker. the mid is usually the frequency from a stock speaker, with less bass. the bass is the low frequency that makes your ears pulse. the high makes you waht to cover your ears. comp sets can have crossovers built in or seperate. the crossover filters out the certain frequency to the correct speaker, example the high pass only allows high range to go through crossing out the mid and bass, mid blocks the bass and high, and bass blocks high and mid range frequencies. a coaxial speaker is both a mid and high range. it looks like a speaker giving a little one a piggyback ride, this is also an example of a cross over that is built in the high has its own filter to block all but high frequencies. ok i hope i explained enough
