Additional Notes

  • The 2016 Audi S7 factory audio system contains multiple speaker sizes distributed across nine locations, with tweeters positioned in four locations for high-frequency reproduction.
  • Upgrading the 6.5-inch midbass or full-range speakers in both front and rear door panels could provide the most substantial impact on overall sound quality, as these handle the majority of the frequency spectrum.
  • The system incorporates a three-way component setup in the front doors, featuring separate 1-inch tweeters, 4-inch midrange drivers, and 6.5-inch midbass units for frequency-specific sound reproduction.
  • An 8-inch subwoofer in the cargo area handles low-frequency bass output, which may be replaceable with aftermarket units designed for similar enclosure specifications.
  • The C-pillar location houses 3.5-inch midrange speakers that contribute to rear soundstage and ambient fill, though these typically receive lower priority during incremental upgrades.
  • Tweeter replacements across the dashboard, center dash, and rear door locations would require components with 1-inch mounting compatibility and appropriate crossover points.
  • The 3.5-inch full-range speaker in the center dash likely serves as a dedicated center channel for vocals and dialogue clarity in premium audio configurations.
  • Aftermarket speakers would need to match the factory mounting depths and impedance ratings to function properly with the existing amplification system.
