Tweeter location
Hi what are some suggested locations for mounting the tweeters for component speakers? I don't have stock tweeter mounts...

In the US, at least, the S model doesn't have tweeters but does have the wiring in place. If you could use the posts, that would make it easier, and the positioning is good, soundwise.

Re: Tweeter location (kc5f)
I was thinking of taking out the stock tweeters and putting in aftermarkets. Would it make make a sound improvement at all?

I would think so. Not 100% sure though.Do you have the premium sound system?
I have the premium sound system and my stereo, subs, and amp sound amazing with rap but with metal they aren't so well so I am thinking about getting better speakers through-out the car.

Re: Tweeter location (bazza236)
Here's the answer to your question....This is probably the best area to do it as the SL models that are equipped with the audio package has them mounted in the same place.bazza236 wrote:Hi what are some suggested locations for mounting the tweeters for component speakers?

I don't have the audio package that is available as an accessory. Not sure what you mean by premium sound system. I changed out the stock speakers and have some aftermarket Kenwood ones, along with aftermarket Kenwood mono amp and 12" sub. Sound quality is way better than stocks, plenty of bass, treble and midrange.Codelicious wrote:I would think so. Not 100% sure though.Do you have the premium sound system?

The premium sound system is what Nissan refer to as the AM/FM/in-dash 6 CD audio system (180 watts). It's part of the audio system (package) where you get the following: The radio that I mentioned up above, the 6 speakers (4 speakers and two tweeters in the A-pillar), MP3/WMA capability, Auxiliary audio input jack and I can't forget the bluetooth along with steering wheel controls. Oh I know when the Versa's started on the market they were being offered a subwoofer also in that package (I think HB version only though) This is only comes with the SL models at extra cost...VersaMG08 wrote:I don't have the audio package that is available as an accessory.

I have the in-dash 6 CD audio system. Just don't have the audio package that has the stock amp and sub as a package that is offered at the dealer. I'm looking forward to upgrading the tweeters though and possibly get a capacitors like the one made by Rockford Fosgate.dee_tymz_sl wrote:

Re: Tweeter location (dee_tymz_sl)
I have the upgraded sound system too, and have the same thing as dee_tymz_sl posted in his pictures ... Upgraded sound system included the 6 disc cd changer and the Speakers and Rockford Fosgate Sub-Woofer. That was included when I upgraded to the sport and technology package.

I would pay more attention to the amount of current draw your amps have vs. the output of the factory alternator. Caps don't hurt but they can't fix issues with drawing more current than the alt can supply.VersaMG08 wrote:I have the in-dash 6 CD audio system.
