Abstract

An audio system for a vehicle is provided with a woofer speaker having a front side for producing a required bass-range acoustic output in a passenger compartment of the vehicle and a back side having an infinite baffle. The audio system includes a bass-compatible speaker disposed in the passenger compartment of the vehicle. A controller is in communication with the woofer and the bass-compatible speaker and is programmed to distribute the required bass-range sound output to the woofer and the bass-compatible speaker based on at least one of a vehicle speed and a sound output level of the audio system.
