Additional Notes

  • The 2017 Ford Transit Connect features a multi-location speaker system with 1-inch tweeters positioned in the A-pillars and 6.5-inch speakers distributed across door locations including front panels, rear cargo area doors, and side cargo area doors.
  • The A-pillar tweeters handle high-frequency reproduction, while the 6.5-inch locations accept either midbass drivers or full-range speakers depending on whether a component or coaxial system is selected.
  • Replacing the front door panel speakers typically yields the most noticeable improvement since these positions are closest to occupants and handle the majority of audio output in most factory configurations.
  • Component systems with separate tweeters may utilize the existing 1-inch A-pillar locations, potentially eliminating the need for additional tweeter mounting and preserving factory aesthetics.
  • The cargo area speakers likely serve rear fill duties, providing ambient sound coverage in the vehicle's larger interior space rather than primary stereo imaging.
  • Both single DIN and double DIN head units are compatible with the radio opening, offering flexibility for aftermarket receiver upgrades with varying feature sets and display sizes.
  • The uniform 6.5-inch sizing across all door locations simplifies speaker selection since identical drivers can be installed in multiple positions if desired.
  • Full-range 6.5-inch speakers offer simpler installation with integrated tweeters, while midbass drivers paired with the A-pillar tweeters may provide better frequency separation and staging.
