Nissan Cube Rear Speaker Size
The Nissan Cube rear location accommodates an 8 inch speaker size across all listed model years. Subwoofer units are the compatible replacement types for the audio system. These specifications cover the 2009 to 2014 model year chart range.
| Year | Type | Size (inch) |
|---|---|---|
| 2014 | Subwoofer | 8 |
| 2013 | Subwoofer | 8 |
| 2012 | Subwoofer | 8 |
| 2011 | Subwoofer | 8 |
| 2010 | Subwoofer | 8 |
| 2009 | Subwoofer | 8 |
Speaker Types
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Subwoofer | A large driver for the lowest bass notes, typically from about 20 Hz to 120 Hz. It is usually installed in a separate enclosure and works alongside the other speakers. |
Additional Notes
- The rear speaker location in the Nissan Cube accommodates an 8-inch driver across all listed model years from 2009 through 2014.
- An 8-inch diameter requires a mounting cutout and enclosure depth sufficient to house a cone assembly and magnet structure larger than those of typical 6.5-inch or 6x9-inch door speakers, meaning the rear cavity of the Nissan Cube is dimensioned to accept a driver of that physical scale.
- The rear location in the Nissan Cube is specified exclusively for subwoofer-type drivers, indicating the mounting space is dedicated to low-frequency reproduction rather than full-range or mid-range sound.
- A subwoofer handles the lowest portion of the audible frequency spectrum, generally operating below 200 Hz, with many designs optimized for the 20 Hz to 80 Hz range where bass fundamentals and low-end impact are reproduced.
- An 8-inch subwoofer cone surface area supports greater air displacement than smaller drivers, which is directly relevant to bass output at the rear of the Nissan Cube's cabin volume.
- Subwoofers are non-directional at low frequencies due to the long wavelengths involved, so the rear placement in the Nissan Cube does not create the localization concerns associated with positioning mid-range or high-frequency drivers at the back of a vehicle.
- The Nissan Cube's rear subwoofer position requires a mounting depth and basket clearance compatible with an 8-inch subwoofer's typically deeper magnet assembly, which differs from the shallower profiles of coaxial or component speakers used in door or dash locations.
- Because subwoofers require amplified, low-pass filtered signal input to function within their intended frequency band, the rear location in the Nissan Cube is acoustically and electrically distinct from speaker positions that receive full-range signal.
- The consistent 8-inch subwoofer specification across the 2009-2014 model range indicates the rear mounting dimensions and enclosure characteristics remained unchanged throughout those production years.
