General
Q: Which is better, a SVC or DVC subwoofer?
A: EXCELLENT question! DVC (dual voice coil) subwoofers typically offer several advantages over their SVC (single voice coil) brethren as they have two voice coils:
- Increased power handling due to the additional copper the voice coils are wound with
- Lower frequency response capability (albeit slight) due to the increased mass from the weight of the additional copper the voice coils are wound with
- Increased installation flexibility – IE, a 4Ω DVC woofer can be wired as a:
o 4Ω load to each of two channels of a power amplifier
o 2Ω load to one channel of a power amplifier with its coils connected in parallel
o 8Ω load to one channel of a power amplifier with its coils connected in series
We recommend that you choose the one that fits your application best. It is worth noting that most manufacturers offer their more expensive woofers in DVC only though . . .
Q: Did one of the founding partners of Q-Logic really turn down an opportunity to sponsor Garth Brooks back before he was famous?
A: Yes, this is true! Back in the days before Garth Brooks achieved fame, founding partner Bill Basore did in fact turn down several opportunities to help this aspiring artist get started.
Q: What is “Flat Frequency Response?”
A: “Flat Frequency Response” means the frequency response* is without major peaks or dips. This frequency response* can span a narrow range of frequencies, such as a subwoofer (20 Hz – 80 Hz or so), or a wide range of frequencies, like that of a pair of component speakers (80 Hz – 20,000 Hz or so). To be considered “Flat” there should be no more than a +3dB or -3dB deviation in the measured response – this is sometimes written as +/- 3dB.
