But a quality subwoofer will reproduce low frequencies down to 20Hz or lower.
Moreover, many companies offer subwoofers for automotive. For example, HARMAN International Industries launched the new Infinity Reference series, a collection of shallow-mount subwoofers. Offering good design and engineered to deliver powerful bass, the new speakers will bring the car listening experience to an entirely new level.
