Number of bands
The number of separate frequency ranges into which the total frequency range reproduced by the speaker is divided. In this case, a separate speaker (or even several) is allocated for each range (band). the optimal speaker parameters for each band are different. Therefore, multi-band speakers are considered to provide better sound quality than full-range speakers. In modern multi-band car audio,
2(HF / LF) or
3(HF / MF / LF) bands are usually provided.
Max. power
The maximum power of a short-term (up to several seconds) incoming signal that the speaker can withstand without physical damage. Just like the nominal power, it matters for the selection of acoustics for an amplifier (or vice versa): it is believed that the maximum power of the speakers should be at least 2 times higher than the maximum power of the signal source.
Tweeter size
Size of the high-frequency speaker(s) included in the speaker design.
Size affects the amount of space required to install the speaker. However, high frequencies do not require large diffusers, so this dimensions is usually small and does not significantly affect the overall dimensions of the speaker system. The only exception is individual high-frequency tweeters (see "Type"), where the overall dimensions of the housing are directly related to the dimensions of the diffuser.
Midrange speaker diameter
The diameter of the midrange speaker(s) provided in the speaker. Midrange in this case may also mean a combined woofer/midrange speaker or an emitter of broadband acoustics (see "Type").
The size of the midrange speaker is often a key parameter that determines the overall dimensions of the acoustics and, accordingly, the requirements for its installation location. Exceptions can only be found among models with separate woofers (see below). But from the point of view of acoustics, a larger size allows you to achieve higher power and richer sound, including on bass.
