Additional Notes

  • The front door panel positions in the 2017 Chevrolet Spin take a 6-inch driver, which is slightly larger than the 5.25-inch rear door panel positions, suggesting the front stage may carry a somewhat greater portion of the mid and low-mid frequency reproduction.
  • Both door panel locations appear to support either midbass or full-range driver types, which could allow for some flexibility in how the frequency workload is distributed across the cabin depending on the chosen configuration.
  • The dashboard position is sized for a 1-inch tweeter, placing high-frequency reproduction at the front of the cabin, which may contribute to a more forward soundstage orientation relative to the listening position.
  • A front door midbass paired with the dashboard tweeter arrangement could suggest a passively or actively crossed-over two-way front stage was likely a consideration in the original speaker layout design.
  • The rear door panel's 5.25-inch sizing tends to be associated with a more limited low-frequency extension compared to the 6-inch front door counterparts, which may mean the rear fill role is somewhat constrained in output depth.
  • Replacing the front door and dashboard speakers together rather than individually could be a reasonable priority if a more cohesive front soundstage improvement is the intended outcome, given how the tweeter and midbass positions work in relation to each other.
