Daewoo Nubira Speaker FAQ

What speakers should I replace first in my Daewoo Nubira?

Replace the front door panel speakers first. The 6.5-inch front speakers handle most of your vocals and midrange frequencies. You'll notice the biggest improvement in clarity and imaging from the driver's seat. The Daewoo Nubira's front door placement gives better stereo separation than the rear deck speakers. Save the rear deck upgrade for later unless you're doing a complete system overhaul.

Should I choose coaxial or component speakers for my Daewoo Nubira?

Component speakers offer better sound quality but require more work. The separate tweeter and woofer design gives cleaner frequency separation - tweeters handle 3000Hz and up while woofers cover everything below. Your Nubira can accommodate both types in the 6.5-inch size. Coaxials are simpler to install since everything's in one unit. If you're keeping the factory head unit, coaxials might be the practical choice. Components really shine when you add an amplifier later.

What power handling should I look for in 6.5-inch speakers for my Daewoo Nubira?

Target speakers with 20-50 watts RMS power handling. Most factory head units in the Nubira push around 15-22 watts per channel. You want some headroom above your amp's output - maybe 30-40 watts RMS rating gives you clean sound without distortion. Peak power ratings don't matter much. The 4-ohm impedance is standard and works with your factory wiring. Higher power handling doesn't automatically mean better sound quality though.

Can I install component speakers in both front and rear locations of my Daewoo Nubira?

Yes, but the rear deck installation gets tricky with tweeters. The 6.5-inch woofers fit fine in the rear deck lid, but you'll need to find mounting spots for the separate tweeters. Some people mount them in the rear parcel shelf or door panels if there's space. The Nubira's rear speaker placement already sits pretty high, so the benefit of separating tweeters isn't as dramatic as up front. Consider mixing - components in front, coaxials in back.

How do I verify the speaker size in my Daewoo Nubira before buying replacements?

Remove one speaker and measure the mounting holes. The 6.5-inch size refers to the cone diameter, but mounting dimensions vary between brands. Check the hole spacing - usually around 5.5 inches for 6.5-inch speakers. Measure the depth too since the Nubira's door panels have limited clearance behind the speaker. Some aftermarket speakers are deeper than factory ones. The rear deck might have more depth flexibility than the front doors.
