Additional Notes

  • The 1998 Nissan Quest features three distinct speaker locations, all utilizing full-range speaker types throughout the cabin.
  • Both front and rear door panels accommodate 5x7 inch full-range speakers, creating a uniform size specification across the door-mounted positions.
  • The rear location accepts 6x8 inch full-range speakers, which differs from the door panel size configuration.
  • Full-range speakers in these positions typically handle the entire audio spectrum without requiring separate tweeters or woofers, simplifying the replacement process.
  • The size variation between door panels and rear location suggests the original audio system was designed with spatial considerations specific to each mounting point.
  • Aftermarket full-range speakers in these exact sizes would maintain factory fitment while potentially offering enhanced frequency response and power handling.
  • The radio opening supports both single DIN and double DIN head units, providing flexibility for audio system upgrades beyond speaker replacement.
  • Upgrading the door panel speakers first may provide noticeable improvement to mid-range frequencies and vocal clarity, as these positions typically deliver audio to front and rear passengers most directly.
  • The rear 6x8 inch position could contribute additional bass response compared to the smaller door speakers due to its larger cone area.
  • Factory speaker specifications like these help determine appropriate impedance and power ratings when selecting replacement components.
