Scheme 286

Also, two types of front sash trim, a resin type and punching metal type , are available. With the punching metal type, the metal is adopted for the punching part to enlarge the punching opening, enabling the playback of cleaner treble.

Front door speaker

1. For vehicles with 6-speaker, the 16-cm paper cone speaker has been established.
2. For vehicles with 9-speaker 7-position system, the 16-cm PP (polypropylene) cone speaker has been established.

Compared to the paper cone speakers, the PP (polypropylene) cone speakers can playback crisper bass.

Rear door speaker

1. For vehicles with 6-speaker, the 16-cm paper cone speaker has been established.
2. For vehicles with 9-speaker 7-position system, the 16-cm PP (polypropylene) cone 2-way coaxial speaker has been established.

As for the PP (polypropylene) cone 2-way coaxial speaker, high/low-pitched speakers have been arranged on the same axle, corresponding to the well-balanced and wide pitch ranges.

Scheme 287

Note. The parts with "*" are installed exclusively to the vehicles with 9 speaker 7 position system (Rockford Fosgate premium sound system).

For vehicles with 9-speaker 7-position system, the door opening of the vehicle has been blocked by the door speaker bracket (front: sheet metal cover, rear: resin cover), door speaker cover (resin cover), and acoustic material of door water proof film to make the door into a speaker box, thus improving the sound quality. As an advantage of the door speaker bracket (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.

Serviceability

The one-touch installable speaker (with 3 tabs, fixed by rotating) has been adopted to improve serviceability.
