Additional Notes

  • The 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer factory audio system incorporates separate tweeters and larger speakers, suggesting a component-style setup that separates high and low frequency reproduction across multiple locations.
  • Tweeters are positioned in three distinct locations: the A-pillar, front door panels, and rear door panels, all sized at 1 inch, which could provide broad high-frequency dispersion throughout the cabin.
  • The front and rear door panels house 6.5 inch speakers compatible with either midbass or full-range drivers, offering flexibility for aftermarket replacements depending on whether the tweeter locations are retained or bypassed.
  • A 10 inch subwoofer location exists in the rear, which may handle low-frequency output that the door-mounted speakers cannot reproduce effectively.
  • Replacing the door panel speakers with quality midbass drivers while maintaining the factory tweeters could preserve the intended frequency separation of the component design.
  • Alternatively, installing 6.5 inch full-range speakers in the door panels might simplify the system if the factory tweeter locations are not utilized or become non-functional.
  • The radio opening accepts both single DIN and double DIN head units, providing options for source unit upgrades without dashboard modification.
  • Sound improvement may be achievable by addressing the 6.5 inch door speakers first, as they likely handle the majority of the audible frequency range during typical listening.
  • The presence of dedicated tweeter locations suggests that aftermarket component speaker sets with separate tweeters could integrate into the existing mounting points without additional fabrication.
  • The 10 inch subwoofer position might be supplemented or replaced depending on desired bass output levels and available amplifier power.
