    What is the primary purpose of a 'sub-woofer' in a computer speaker system?

    a)
    To reproduce high-frequency sounds (treble).
    b)
    To reproduce very low-frequency sounds (bass).
    c)
    To provide surround sound effects.
    d)
    To act as the main amplifier for the system.

    Explanation

    A sub-woofer is a loudspeaker specifically designed to reproduce the lowest audio frequencies, typically from around 20Hz to 200Hz. Standard speakers (satellites) are not efficient at producing these deep bass notes, so a dedicated sub-woofer provides a richer, fuller audio experience.
