Additional Notes
- The 1980 Dodge St. Regis positions smaller front dashboard speakers at 3.5 inches alongside larger 6x9 inch rear speakers, suggesting the factory audio configuration relied on rear-mounted drivers for primary sound reproduction.
- Both dashboard and rear locations accept full-range speaker types, which handle the complete audio frequency spectrum within a single driver unit rather than requiring separate components for different frequency ranges.
- The 3.5 inch dashboard speakers face limitations in bass response due to their compact cone area, though they may contribute to mid-range and higher frequency clarity when positioned closer to front seat occupants.
- The 6x9 inch rear speakers provide substantially greater cone surface area compared to the dashboard units, potentially offering improved bass extension and overall acoustic output when replaced with aftermarket equivalents.
- Upgrading the rear speakers might deliver more noticeable improvements to overall sound quality than replacing the dashboard speakers, given the difference in size and corresponding frequency reproduction capabilities.
- The single DIN radio mounting space allows for modern head unit installation without requiring additional dashboard modifications, which could pair with replacement speakers to enhance the total audio system.
- Full-range speaker compatibility means that component speaker systems with separate tweeters and woofers would require custom installation approaches rather than direct mounting in the factory locations.
