Various car audio styles, it will be better to modify them after understanding them!
Due to domestic laws and regulations, it is still relatively difficult to modify the appearance of a car. But the modification of car interiors is not so strict. When talking about the modification of interiors, we have to talk about the modification of car audio. For the majority of car audio enthusiasts, car audio modification is very important. So let me introduce to you what you need to pay attention to when modifying car audio.
First of all, we need to figure out two questions. First, for car owners, what style of music do they generally like to listen to. Second, what is the approximate budget for modification costs. After the above two issues have been determined, we can start to choose a sound system that suits us.
As for the style of the car audio system, the editor cannot give any opinions to the readers before I understand the car owner’s preferences. Because some car owners like to listen to magnificent symphonies, and some like to listen to heavy metal percussion. The currently popular audio styles can be mainly divided into these categories: American sound, British sound, European sound, etc. Below, the editor will introduce you to the characteristics of each type one by one.
The first type is American audio. It belongs to the "power type", which is characterized by strong intensity, huge dynamics, free and unrestrained, distinctive personality, rough and generous, and is suitable for listening to rock, jazz and heavy metal percussion. American-style speakers are widely favored by the younger generation in China. Representative brands include ROCKFORD FOSGATE, KICKER, MTX AUDIO, etc.
The second is the British sound. The British voice has a typical European royal origin, with soft and sweet tone, dignified and elegant shape, flashy but not flashy, and is most suitable for classical string music and vocal reproduction. However, the British sound is less effective in expressing large dynamic and explosive scenes and low-frequency volume. Even though British sound has a very high status in the field of home Hi-Fi and even Hi-END, in the field of domestic car audio, British brands are rare. Perhaps it is because most consumers prefer dynamic and explosive effects. And this is the weakness of the British voice. The main representative brands are GENSIS, KEF, MACROM and a few other brands.
The third type is German audio. Regarding Germany, we are impressed by its exquisite craftsmanship. German audio fully embodies the meticulous, rigorous and self-disciplined professionalism of German workers. The tone is natural, neutral and gentle, clean and refreshing. It is especially famous in the industry for its exquisite workmanship, which is breathtaking. Very suitable for the playback of pop music, classical music, and audiophile vocals. Representatives of German audio include the old brands MB Quart and RAINBOW. The new players BRAX and HELIX, which have risen rapidly in recent years, also enjoy a high reputation in the car audio industry.
The fourth type is based on European voices such as France, Denmark, Italy, Sweden, and Norway. It is permeated with the wit and romance of the French, the artistic atmosphere of the Italian Renaissance, the liveliness and cheerfulness of the Nordic people, and the extremely exquisite traditional craftsmanship: the sound is pure and natural, the mid- and high-frequency is slightly exaggerated, but it is very musical. And it has very good compatibility. Representative brands include French FOCAL, Danish Dynaudio, Italian AUDISON, Swedish DLS, Israeli MOREL, etc.
The last one is domestic audio. Domestic car audio, due to its late start, is mostly a car audio project launched by home audio manufacturers in this century. Therefore, it does not yet have a distinctive style that is widely recognized, so it is difficult to use a "sound" to describe it. However, due to the relatively low price and rapid development momentum, coupled with its better sound effects, the threshold for modifying car audio has been lowered, so the market share of domestic car audio is currently expanding.
Regarding car audio, I personally think that it is not just judged by its price. Many people may think that expensive audio is the best. But in fact, only the speakers that truly suit your own style are the best. However, when choosing speakers, the editor recommends that you make multiple comparisons.
This way you can decide which speakers best suit your style.
