Frequency
An individual note or tone which is measured in cycles per second and usually notated as CPS or Hz. Fewer cycles per second produce lower notes which are typically reproduced by the woofer or subwoofer. More cycles per second produce higher notes which are typically reproduced by the midrange or tweeter. The human ear can hear frequency cycles from 20 to 20,000 per second.
