Additional Notes

  • The factory audio system in the 2013 Nissan NV3500 features three distinct speaker locations with varying sizes, suggesting a tiered approach to sound distribution throughout the cabin.
  • Dashboard speakers are limited to 3.5 inch full-range drivers, which typically handle mid and high frequencies but may lack low-end response due to their compact size.
  • Front door panels accommodate 6.5 inch speakers that can accept either dedicated midbass drivers or full-range units, potentially offering more flexibility in system configuration compared to the dashboard position.
  • The availability of midbass-specific options for the front doors indicates that separating frequency ranges between dashboard and door speakers could be a viable upgrade path.
  • Rear side panels utilize 6x9 inch speakers in full-range configuration, which generally provide broader frequency response than smaller drivers due to their increased cone area.
  • The oval 6x9 format in the rear may contribute more low-frequency output than the round front speakers, though the specific depth and mounting constraints would affect performance.
  • Upgrading the front door speakers might take priority over other locations since they offer midbass capability and sit closer to front seat occupants.
  • The radio supports both single DIN and double DIN head units, allowing for potential source unit upgrades without dashboard modification concerns.
  • Component speaker systems could potentially be installed using the 6.5 inch front door locations for woofers while relocating tweeters to the dashboard or adding them separately.
  • The rear 6x9 speakers may benefit from replacement if additional bass response is needed without adding a subwoofer, though this depends on panel depth and enclosure volume behind the mounting surface.
