Mitsubishi Outlander Speaker FAQ

What speaker sizes fit the front doors of a Mitsubishi Outlander?

6.5 inch speakers mount in the front door panels. Both coaxial and component speakers work here. The factory setup includes separate 1 inch tweeters, so you can either replace everything with coaxials or upgrade to component systems. Component speakers usually sound better because... well, dedicated tweeters handle highs more precisely than coaxial designs. If you're keeping the factory amplifier, look for speakers around 4 ohms impedance. Most aftermarket 6.5 inch speakers will fit without modification.

Should I replace the rear 8 inch or 6.5 inch speakers first in my Mitsubishi Outlander?

Replace the front 6.5 inch speakers first. They handle most of the music reproduction and vocal clarity. The rear 8 inch speakers are more for fill and bass support. You'll notice bigger improvements upgrading fronts because that's where stereo imaging happens. The 8 inch rears can be full-range or subwoofer types depending on your Outlander's configuration. If you have a 10 inch subwoofer already, the 8 inch speakers might be redundant anyway. Focus front first, then decide if the rear really needs attention.

Can I install component speakers in both front and rear doors of my Mitsubishi Outlander?

Yes, but it's probably overkill. The Outlander has tweeter locations in both front and rear door panels, so component speakers will physically fit. Most people sit facing forward though. Rear components don't add much unless you have rear passengers constantly. The 6.5 inch locations accept component woofers easily. You might need tweeter adapters depending on the aftermarket brand. Power handling around 50-75 watts RMS should work well with most factory systems. Save money and just do front components with rear coaxials.

What's the difference between the 8 inch and 10 inch rear speakers in the Mitsubishi Outlander?

The 10 inch is a dedicated subwoofer, the 8 inch can be full-range or subwoofer depending on the setup. Some Outlanders have both, some have one or the other. The 10 inch typically handles 20-80 Hz range with maybe 100-150 watts handling. The 8 inch might cover broader frequencies if it's full-range type. Check your factory amplifier specs... if you have a separate sub channel, the 10 inch is probably connected there. The 8 inch could be running off rear channel power. Replacing the 10 inch usually requires powered subwoofers since it's expecting amplified signal.
