Word origin

The term 'subwoofer' is derived from 'sub-', a prefix meaning 'below' or 'under', and 'woofer', which refers to a speaker that reproduces low frequencies. The development of subwoofers began in the 1960s and 1970s when audio enthusiasts desired deeper bass sounds in music and movies. The technology evolved alongside advancements in audio engineering, leading to the creation of dedicated subwoofer systems. In modern audio setups, subwoofers have become essential for delivering an immersive sound experience, particularly in home theater systems. Their ability to produce low-frequency sounds has significantly enhanced the enjoyment of various audio content, from music to cinematic experiences.
