The difference between full-range speakers and crossover speakers

Speakers can be divided into full-range speakers, two-way speakers, three-way speakers and other types of speakers according to the frequency division form. The key to the sound effect of speakers depends on their built-in full-range speakers and crossover speaker components. The full-range speaker sounds natural and is suitable for listening to human voices. The crossover speaker is excellent in high and low extensibility, and can transmit sound effects with distinct layers and rich sense of detail. Therefore, the sound system in some application scenarios is to choose the appropriate speaker equipment according to the needs, or it can be used in combination to achieve the best effect.

The speaker is an important part of the sound system, it can be said that it is the soul. The types of speakers on the market now, as well as their main sound characteristics, presumably many interested friends want to know and learn, because only by understanding their principles and advantages in detail can we better choose the right speaker equipment in the required place . The appearance of the speaker seems simple, but its internal speaker structure is not simple, and it is precisely because of these complex unit structures and their reasonable arrangement that it is possible to create a durable sound quality. Speakers can be divided into full-range speakers, two-way speakers, three-way speakers and other types of speakers according to the frequency division form. the
Full range speaker
A full-range speaker refers to a speaker unit that is responsible for sound output in all frequency ranges. The advantages of full-range speakers are simple structure, easy debugging, low cost, good mid-frequency vocals, and relatively uniform timbre. Because there is no interference from frequency dividers and crossover points, one unit is responsible for full-range sound, so as long as the sound effect of the speaker unit is good for full-range speakers, mid-frequency vocals can still do well, and even mid-high frequency sounds can also do well. . Why can full-range speakers achieve beautiful sound quality and clear timbre? Because it is a point sound source, the phase can be accurate; the timbre of each frequency band tends to be consistent, and it is easy to bring better sound field, imaging, instrument separation and layering, especially the vocal performance is excellent. Full-range speakers can be used in bars, multi-function halls, government enterprises, stage performances, schools, hotels, cultural tourism, stadiums, etc. the
.Frequency speaker
Crossover speakers can now generally be divided into two-way speakers and three-way speakers, which refer to speakers with two or more unit speakers, and each speaker is responsible for the sound output of the corresponding frequency range through a frequency divider.
The advantage of the crossover speaker is that each unit speaker is responsible for a specific frequency region, the tweeter component is responsible for the treble, the midrange unit component is responsible for the midrange, and the woofer component is responsible for the bass. Therefore, each responsible unit in the exclusive frequency domain can perform at its best. The combination of the unit components of the crossover speaker can make the extension of the treble and bass wider, so it can usually cover a wider frequency range than the full-range speaker, and the transient performance is also very good. Crossover speakers can be used in KTV, bars, hotels, party rooms, gyms, stage performances, stadiums, etc.
The disadvantage of crossover speakers is that there are many unit components, so there is a certain difference in timbre and phase difference between them, and the crossover network introduces new distortion to the system, and the sound field, image quality, separation and level will all be better. It is easy to be affected, the sound field of the sound is not so pure, and the overall timbre will also deviate.
To sum up, the key to the sound effect of speakers depends on their built-in full-range speakers and crossover speaker components. The full-range speaker sounds natural and is suitable for listening to human voices. The crossover speaker is excellent in high and low extensibility, and can transmit sound effects with distinct layers and rich sense of detail. Therefore, the sound system in some application scenarios is to choose the appropriate speaker equipment according to the needs, or it can be used in combination to achieve the best effect.
