Dodge Dynasty Speaker FAQ

Which speakers should I replace first in my Dodge Dynasty for the biggest sound improvement?

Start with the 6 x 9 inch rear deck speakers. These handle most of your bass and midrange output, so upgrading them first gives you the most noticeable improvement. The rear deck location also means easier installation - you won't need to remove door panels. Look for coaxial speakers rated around 50-75 watts RMS with 4-ohm impedance. The Dynasty's factory system benefits most from better bass response, which the 6 x 9s provide.

Can I install component speakers in the front doors of a Dodge Dynasty?

Yes, the front door panels can accommodate component speakers, though you might need mounting adapters for the 5.25 inch opening. Component systems separate the tweeter from the woofer, giving you better stereo imaging. However, you'll need to find a spot to mount the tweeters - maybe the door panels or A-pillars. The crossovers can usually fit behind the door panel. Make sure your aftermarket speakers match the factory 4-ohm load to avoid overloading the head unit.

What's the difference between coaxial and triaxial speakers for the Dynasty's rear deck?

Coaxial speakers have a tweeter mounted on the woofer - simple two-way design. Triaxial adds a small midrange driver, creating a three-way system in one speaker. For the Dynasty's rear deck position, triaxials might give you slightly better midrange clarity since you're sitting closer to those speakers. But honestly, a quality coaxial often sounds better than a cheap triaxial. Focus on frequency response - look for speakers that handle 45Hz to 20kHz reasonably well rather than getting caught up in the driver count.

Should I bother upgrading the 3.5 inch dashboard speakers in my Dodge Dynasty?

The dashboard speakers mostly handle upper midrange and treble frequencies. They're not going to give you much bass anyway due to size limitations. If your Dynasty's dash speakers are working, you might want to upgrade the larger speakers first. These 3.5 inch units typically see power ratings around 20-30 watts RMS. The dashboard location does help with vocal clarity though, so if you listen to a lot of talk radio or podcasts, upgrading them could improve speech intelligibility.

What impedance should I look for when replacing Dodge Dynasty speakers?

Stick with 4-ohm speakers across all locations. The Dynasty's factory head unit is designed for this impedance load. Using 8-ohm speakers will reduce your power output - you'll get maybe half the volume. 2-ohm speakers could potentially damage your head unit by drawing too much current. Most aftermarket car speakers come in 4-ohm versions anyway. If you're running an aftermarket amplifier later, then you have more flexibility with impedance matching.
