- The factory audio configuration in the 2017 Audi S5 distributes multiple speaker sizes across various locations, with tweeters measuring 0.75 inch in the front door panels and rear side panels, alongside a slightly larger 1 inch tweeter in the dashboard position.
- A dedicated 2.5 inch midrange speaker occupies the center dash location, potentially handling vocal frequencies and mid-range content that falls between the tweeter and larger driver ranges.
- The rear deck lid contains both a 3.5 inch full-range speaker and an 8 inch woofer, suggesting a dual-driver approach in this location for handling different portions of the frequency spectrum.
- Both front and rear door locations accommodate 6.5 inch speakers with compatibility for either midbass or full-range drivers, offering flexibility in component selection based on whether the factory tweeter network remains in use.
- Rear side panels feature three distinct speaker sizes: a 0.75 inch tweeter, a 6.5 inch midbass or full-range driver, and an 8 inch woofer, indicating a complex multi-way configuration in these positions.
- The presence of dedicated woofer locations measuring 8 inches in both rear side panels and the rear deck lid suggests these positions handle lower frequency reproduction while the smaller drivers manage higher frequencies.
- Replacement priorities might focus on the larger 6.5 inch and 8 inch drivers first, as these handle more audible frequency ranges and typically show greater performance variation between factory and aftermarket options.
- Component speaker systems with separate tweeters and midbass drivers could integrate with the existing 0.75 inch tweeter locations, though coaxial full-range 6.5 inch speakers remain an alternative if the factory tweeter positions are bypassed.
