【Pioneer TS-WH500A | Add Natural Bass Inside Your Car with a Slimline Active Subwoofer】

“I want a bit more body to the sound from my factory audio.”

For those people, the slimline active subwoofer TS-WH500A from Pioneer is a great choice. It doesn’t just make the bass louder—it fills in low frequencies that are hard to reproduce with only the front speakers, adding a natural thickness to the overall music.

Even with a Slim Body, It Clearly Boosts the Presence of Bass

The TS-WH500A uses Pioneer’s original “HVT method,” which enables a thinner speaker design. Since the body height is limited to only 6 cm, it’s designed to be easy to add inside the car without using a large amount of trunk space like a typical box-style subwoofer.

Its playable frequency range is 20 Hz to 200 Hz. Not only does it add weight to low sounds from the bass and kick drum, but vocals and instrument sounds also feel less thin—giving your usual tracks a slightly more substantial impression.

By adjusting it while considering how it connects with the front speakers—rather than simply turning up the volume to make only the bass stand out—you can enjoy the entire music even at normal listening volume.

An Active Type That’s Easy to Add to Factory Audio

Because it’s an active subwoofer with a built-in amplifier, you can add it to your system without needing a separate power amplifier. It also supports high-level input, making it an easy model to consider if you want to supplement the bass while using your factory navigation system and factory audio as-is.

With the included remote control, you can adjust the volume and frequency from the driver’s seat. You can also change how the bass comes through according to the music genre or your mood that day, which makes it convenient to use.

However, just because it’s a slim model doesn’t mean it will fit neatly in the same place in every vehicle. The final result and ease of use will vary depending on the space under the seat, the mounting method, how the wiring is routed, and how it’s connected to the factory audio.

At LOGON, we install and tune not only based on the subwoofer’s standalone volume, but also by checking the balance with the sound of the entire vehicle. If it were me, I would first confirm what kind of music you usually listen to and your preferences for bass, then consider whether the TS-WH500A fits your vehicle.

If you’d like to add bass without using the trunk, or if you want to enjoy music a bit more without drastically changing the sound of your factory speakers, please feel free to consult us. We’ll suggest a practical addition method that suits your vehicle model and how you use it.
