Front Door Panel Speaker

Plymouth Prowler Speaker FAQ

Should I replace the front door speakers in my Plymouth Prowler first?

Yes, start with the front door speakers. They handle most of your music's midrange frequencies and vocals. The Plymouth Prowler's front doors can accommodate either 6.5 inch coaxial or component speakers, so you have flexibility in your upgrade path. Coaxials give you immediate improvement for around 50-100 watts RMS. Components separate the tweeter from the woofer - better soundstage but requires more installation work.

What's the difference between coaxial and component speakers for the Plymouth Prowler?

Coaxial speakers combine the tweeter and woofer in one unit. Simpler installation, decent sound improvement. Component speakers separate these - tweeter mounts separately, usually in the door panel or A-pillar. Components typically offer better imaging and frequency separation around the 3-4kHz crossover point. For the Prowler's cabin size, components might be overkill unless you're serious about audio quality. The 6.5 inch size works well for both types.

How many watts should I look for in 6.5 inch speakers for my Plymouth Prowler?

Target 75-100 watts RMS for the front doors. Peak power ratings don't matter much - focus on RMS. The Plymouth Prowler's electrical system can handle this without issues. Higher wattage speakers (150+ watts RMS) won't necessarily sound better unless you're adding an external amplifier. Stock head unit probably outputs 15-20 watts per channel, so even 50-watt speakers will be an improvement. Sensitivity ratings around 88-92 dB work well with factory power.

Will 6.5 inch speakers fit properly in the Plymouth Prowler door panels?

The 6.5 inch size should fit the factory mounting points. Check mounting depth though - some aftermarket speakers are deeper than stock. You might need mounting brackets or spacers. The Prowler's door panel design... well, it's not the most spacious. Measure twice before buying. Speakers with shallow mounting depths (under 2.5 inches) are safer choices. Component tweeters need separate mounting locations - door panels usually have spots but verify first.

What frequency response should I expect from 6.5 inch speakers in the Plymouth Prowler?

Most quality 6.5 inch speakers handle roughly 50Hz to 20kHz. The low end depends on the door's acoustic properties - the Plymouth Prowler's doors might not seal perfectly, which affects bass response below 80Hz. Coaxials typically roll off around 15-18kHz on the high end. Components with separate tweeters can extend to 20kHz or beyond. The cabin acoustics will shape the final sound more than the speaker specs, honestly.
