Additional Notes

  • The 2017 Ram 3500 factory audio configuration utilizes a variety of speaker sizes across different positions, with 6x9 inch full-range speakers installed in both front and door panels representing the largest non-subwoofer components in the system.
  • Replacing the front and rear door panel speakers may provide the most noticeable sound quality improvement, as these 6x9 inch positions typically handle the majority of musical frequency reproduction in the cabin.
  • The dashboard and center dash positions both accommodate 3.5 inch full-range speakers, which generally serve to fill the mid and upper frequency ranges in the listening environment.
  • A factory 8 inch subwoofer position exists below the seats, designed specifically for low-frequency reinforcement and bass output in the audio system.
  • The rear roof location contains a 2.5 inch midrange speaker, which focuses on reproducing middle frequencies rather than the full audio spectrum.
  • The radio opening accepts both single DIN and double DIN aftermarket head units, providing flexibility for audio source component upgrades.
  • Full-range speakers in the door panels handle broader frequency ranges compared to the midrange-specific rear roof position, which affects their contribution to overall sound character.
  • The smaller 2.5 inch and 3.5 inch speakers tend to prioritize clarity in vocal and instrumental frequencies rather than deep bass reproduction.
