Wireless subwoofer

A wireless subwoofer is a unique device that a car owner can use to enrich and improve the sound system. A wireless car subwoofer is undemanding in terms of installation location, which a priori increases its importance in cramped conditions, such as the trunk and interior of a car. So, if you want to save space and not spend a lot of money on purchasing a super-compact subwoofer that fits under the seat, installing a wireless subwoofer can be considered an ideal option.

Difficulty of choice

If you decide to purchase a subwoofer, it is worth familiarizing yourself with the types that you can purchase. It can be active or passive. Active types of subwoofer are usually equipped with a crossover and a built-in amplifier. Therefore, synchronization of this equipment with other acoustic devices in the house occurs with minimal time. The sound from active devices is much better in sound quality than that of passive devices.

A passive home subwoofer is connected in series to the main speakers and usually does not contain powerful amplifiers. The main disadvantage of such equipment is the difficulty of choosing a place to place it.

How to connect a subwoofer to a Samsung TV

It is most convenient to connect an active subwoofer to a Samsung TV via the HDMI port, since the TV tuner models of this company are not equipped with Tulip connectors. The HDMI interface provides optimal sound quality. To connect external sound speakers, use the “HDMI-ARC” connector installed on the body of the TV device. If it is missing, then you will have to use a coaxial or optical audio output. You can also transmit audio through the SCART connector. Connecting audio through digital interfaces has an advantage over broadcasting an audio signal through analog RCA outputs. Analog audio lags behind the picture, making it difficult to sync between devices.

Connection type and design

Based on the type of connection, subwoofers are divided into cable-connected and wireless.

Most often, subwoofers are connected wirelessly via Bluetooth. Note that for some models such a connection is used not for broadcasting sound, but for controlling device settings remotely. Moreover, such models have a wired connection. If we take the transmission of sound signals, then it is necessary to take into account that the audio quality when connecting to Bluetooth will be slightly lower than through wires. But the absence of cables under your feet and the ability to freely move the subwoofer relative to the main signal source in most cases compensate for this disadvantage.

When choosing a subwoofer for your home, pay attention to its design. Equipment of this type is conventionally divided into bass reflex and closed types:

1. Closed-type subwoofers have a completely enclosed cabinet, speaker and built-in amplifier. This type of active wireless subwoofer produces a smooth frequency response and is used in music systems.
2. Bass-reflex subwoofers are characterized by a bright acoustic design; they reproduce more frequencies than devices in a closed case.

After connecting the external sound unit, you need to open the “Sound Settings” menu in the service. Depending on the TV receiver model, the menu items differ, but the main items are the same. These are "Sound Mode", "Sound Effect", "Speaker Settings" and "Disable Internal Speakers". How to connect a subwoofer to a smart TV.

After connecting the additional amplifier and speaker systems, you need to make all the sound menu settings.

An external high-class amplifier connected to a television receiver will provide connection to the front, rear speakers and low-frequency unit. When external sound is activated, the speakers built into the TV tuner are turned off.
