Additional Notes

  • The 1999 Mitsubishi Mirage factory speaker configuration places smaller drivers in the front doors and larger units in the rear deck, which may suggest prioritizing rear deck replacement for improved low-frequency response.
  • Both front and rear locations accept midbass or full-range speaker types, indicating flexibility in component selection based on whether a separate tweeter installation is planned.
  • The size differential between front 5.25 inch and rear 6.5 inch speakers could create an unbalanced soundstage, potentially requiring gain adjustment or strategic component selection during upgrades.
  • Full-range speakers in these positions would handle the entire frequency spectrum independently, while midbass-focused units would typically require supplementary tweeters for high-frequency reproduction.
  • The single DIN radio configuration provides standard aftermarket head unit compatibility without requiring dash modifications or adapter kits.
  • Rear deck speakers at 6.5 inches offer greater cone area compared to the front doors, which typically translates to increased output capability in the lower midrange frequencies.
