  • Teardown - Look inside Sony SA-WM500 12" inch active subwoofer - speaker and how to remove grill for home cinema or HiFi music stereo system setup subwoofer + How to disassembly & assembly this Sony active surround sound effects sub with built-In Amplifier STK404-140S One-Channel Class AB Audio Power Amplifier and speaker driver Sony 1-825-344-11. I love it, how it sound for music, of course it's more suitable for 5.1 or 7.1 home cinema, like a movies or surround sound HQ concerts. Of course, if you listen bass electronics music EDM, it give for you MEGA BASS as like extra juice for music, but it's just for bass heads.

    Sony home speakers are lowcost and super high quality, they're very transparent sounding i.e. the poor man's Audiophile system. I actually still use a 90's sony 2.1 sub system on my Roland Phantom G8 workstation for practice when I don't want to power up the studio amps. I have many vintage speakers such as Infinity, JBL etc, but these really do top the list for sound quality and durability at a very affordable price.

      It is not isobarik. It is push pull, with both drivers generating sound. Isobarik is when only one driver generates sound, and the other just acts as an infinitely big cabinet for the sound generating driver. There is a big difference between the two principles.

    So, I have one of these, this exact model, from a thrift store. I'm wondering if a DIY person could make improvements to it, by altering it in any way? I'm trying to enter the audio/home theater hobby, but I'm retired and on a shoe string budget. I understand that there are better subs available, but I already own this one. I'm just wondering if it can be improved with upgrades. I'm very new to the hobby, so I don't know what can be done. Somebody below described adding a Kicker driver. That would be simple enough, but is it worth it? Would a $100 driver be a significant improvement to quality? What about vibration dampening tape or filler? It looks pretty empty in there in this video. Is it supposed to be empty, or is it empty because of cost cutting measures? Again, sorry for the noob questions, but I gotta start somewhere. Also, what is the purpose of that short plastic port on the outside of the box? Would removing that alter the sound?

    • @dylanstechreviewz6857
      @dylanstechreviewz6857 Před rokem +1

      To maybe help answer your questions, yes there can be improvements made such as adding that kicker driver that you were talking about. But if you really want it to be improved by adding that kicker driver you will need to have more power going to it as well, because adding a more powerful driver without actually feeding it more power it will sound the same with little to no difference. So you will need a more powerful amplifier for that to work well but it is very possible. As for the port on the back you’ll find that in most home audio speakers, what the port does is it helps the speaker enclosure ventilate the air moving inside it while also helping the speaker sound better with bass.

      @@coolelectronics1759 The amplification card is not formidable either to the point that it is necessary to change the speaker (kicker driver, kicker is a special sub, I understood too late), especially since there is better boxes for 12 inches, the plastics on the back can create noise, especially at high power. Anyway, I'm not complaining (because I have a second 2.1 system with more roundness in the bass and punch, otherwise it has a wide band because it will have deeper bass, but I leave it at low speed, let's say it catches up with the shortcomings of the other and vice versa). The result is very convincing, since the time that I am dissatisfied, in all I have 3 systems, amplified speakers (3 pairs of which 2 colones) but fortunately the Pioneer home cinema with its passive subwoofer corrects what is lacking in the WM500, but together they work very well.
