TWEETER
For the front sash trim, two types of tweeters, the balance dome tweeter and soft dome tweeter , have been established. The soft dome tweeter can play clearer treble with less distortion compared to the balance dome tweeter. For better treble, two types of front sash garnish, resin type and punching metal type , has been established. With the punching metal type, the metal has been adopted for the punching part to enlarge the punching opening, enabling the playback of cleaner treble.
DOOR SPEAKER
NOTE: The parts with "*" are installed exclusively to the vehicles with Rockford Fosgate(R) premium sound system.
For the front door speaker, two types of speakers, 16 cm paper cone speaker and PP (polypropylene) cone speaker , are available. For the rear door speaker, two types of speakers, 16 cm paper cone speaker and PP (polypropylene) cone 2-way coaxial speaker , are available. Compared to the paper cone speakers, the PP (polypropylene) cone speakers can playback crisper bass. The door opening of the vehicles with 9 speaker (Rockford Fosgate(R) premium sound system) is blocked by using the sheet metal cover and the urethane integrated resin sheet (resin cover and water proof film) to make the door into a speaker box, thus improving the sound quality. As an advantage of the sheet metal cover, the rigidity of the areas around the speaker has been increased, and the higher sound pressure, suppression of high harmonic, and suppression of dumping are achieved to improve sound quality.
The one-touch installable speaker (with 3 tabs, fixed by rotating) has been adopted to improve serviceability.
SUBWOOFER
The 25 cm dual voice coil subwoofer has been installed to the trunk room, enabling the playback of dynamic deep bass.
