- The 1972 Chevrolet Impala appears to have only two speaker locations in its factory configuration, suggesting a relatively minimal audio setup by today's standards, with no door or pillar positions indicated in the specifications.
- The center dash position accommodates a 4x10 inch full-range driver, a format that was fairly common in period vehicles. Full-range speakers at this location would handle the entire frequency spectrum from a single driver, which may result in limited high-frequency dispersion given the typically narrow vertical profile of a 4x10 inch unit.
- The rear deck lid position accepts a 6x9 inch full-range speaker, a size that tends to offer a broader surface area than the dash unit. The larger cone area of a 6x9 inch driver could suggest a somewhat stronger low-frequency output relative to the center dash speaker, though still within the constraints of a full-range design without a dedicated subwoofer or tweeter.
- Given the size difference between the two positions, the rear deck lid location might be considered the higher-priority replacement point if low-frequency reproduction is a concern, as the 6x9 inch format generally supports a wider frequency range than the 4x10 inch configuration.
- Both positions are listed as full-range compatible only, indicating that component speaker systems with separate tweeters and woofers would not be among the supported types for either location.
