A Volvo C70 convertible - a special listening experience
The Volvo C70 coupé and convertible are equipped with one of the most
advanced and sophisticated factory-fitted, in-car audio system on the
market.
Right back at the concept stage, it was decided that the C70 was to be a
rolling concert hall and the audio features were incorporated as part of the
complete car.
For accessibility and quality reasons, the best solution is to fit an advanced audio system
when the car is built.
The C70 convertible is equipped with no fewer than ten loudspeakers of different types
in the standard version. Anyone who so wishes can specify a package with 12 or 13
speakers as an option.
These speakers have been specially developed, adapted and positioned to match the car
perfectly both acoustically and mechanically. At the same time, they have also been
adapted to one another to produce the best possible results with uniform frequency and
low distortion.
The loudspeakers have been developed in collaboration with Danish Dynaudio, one of
the world's leading companies in the hi-fi field.
Dual three-way system can be heard and felt
The loudspeaker system in the Volvo C70 convertible has the following design. A three-
way system is used at both the front and rear. At the front, there are two 8" woofers, two
4" mid-range speakers and two 1" tweeters to produce a clean sound with a wide
frequency range.
At the rear, there are two 6.5" bass/mid-range speakers and two tweeters. Two 9" bass
speakers - also known as sub-woofers - can be specified as an option.
These large sub-woofers can be mutes by rear-seat passengers as the sub-woofers are
positioned behind the backrest. So it is a question of feeling the sound as much as
hearing it in the convertible's rear seat.
High performance in terms of sound as well
However, these speakers cannot achieve anything on their own. They have to be fed by
amplifiers, radios and other sources of sound.
