Additional Notes

  • The 2017 BMW 640i Gran Coupe utilizes a multi-speaker configuration with dedicated tweeters and midrange drivers distributed across multiple cabin locations, suggesting a component-style factory audio architecture rather than traditional full-range coaxial speakers.
  • Tweeters measuring 1 inch are positioned in the center dash, both front door panels, rear deck lid, and rear door panels, indicating a focus on high-frequency dispersion throughout the listening environment.
  • Midrange drivers at 4 inches occupy the same locations as the tweeters, working in tandem to handle vocal and instrumental frequencies while the tweeters reproduce higher frequencies.
  • An 8 inch subwoofer located below the seats handles low-frequency output, which may present installation challenges for aftermarket replacements due to space constraints in the under-seat location.
  • Replacing the factory tweeters and midrange speakers with aftermarket components could potentially improve clarity and detail, particularly if the stock speakers have deteriorated or if higher sensitivity units are selected.
  • The separate tweeter and midrange configuration allows for targeted upgrades, where one could replace just the tweeters for improved high-frequency response or just the midrange drivers for better vocal reproduction without necessarily replacing both.
  • Sound staging might benefit from aftermarket component speakers in the front doors, as separates typically offer better imaging than coaxial designs when properly installed and aimed.
  • The under-seat subwoofer location may limit upgrade options to shallow-mount designs, which could affect low-frequency extension compared to deeper cone subwoofers.
