Murphdaddy Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I have an 09 lgt with the harmon-kardon sound system. On the window sticker it says that it is a 9 speaker system, yet I only count 7. 1 speaker and 1 tweeter in the front doors that makes 4, 1 in each of the back doors 6, and the sub in back makes 7. Where are the other 2 located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
js516 Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 rear door speakers have co-axial tweeters. My wife's Impreza is the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bravonoj Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 that is more for marketing this so-so system - it technically is a 7 speaker system but the tweeters in the door are mounted down below - if you look at it in the sunlight you'll see...it is quite misleading and I have to say, I am not impressed with it much - at highway speed and turning it up so I could hear, it blew the subwoofer out at 0 bass setting (I never turn the bass past 3)...I am looking for a replacement woofer for the back deck - Pioneer and Dynaudio make one that would fit...

BAC5.2 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 The Legacy/Outback speaker numbers I understand. It's my wife's 09 Impreza Hatch that I don't understand. 10 speaker system... where? I count 8 (doors + tweeters).

bravonoj Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 it's all marketing BS...again, not really impressed with the level of sound that the system produces - it also is supposed to have speed sensitive volume - I'm not sure about anyone else, but my system certainly doesn't have it - same volume no matter what and no option to adjust like other cars have......what a waste- Hopefully they address this in the new fugly 2010 series....which I have seen, and FYI the 2010s actually got a REAL subwoofer driver, not a flat pancake POS like we have! Much better sound from the '10. also doesn't help much that the bass can be turned up loud but the doors rattle, the dome light rattles, etc....

RIPjeep2002 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I sat in ahd turned up the volume in the 2010s, and it is 9 speakers, with SOA putting midranges up in the dash by the A-pillar and a subwoofer in the rear deck. I must say that it just does not compare to the 08-09 system. It just blows it out of its league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything we can retrofit? The sound in my 09 OBXT is far superior to the 09OB2.5iSE I had. Seems odd since it is essentially the exact same system.

If we could swap out it would be an awesome system - go figure it took them a year to work out the kinks with it - oh well... On an unrelated note, did you know that the 09 sedans with the HK system actually has TWO Sub outputs? The amp is the same as the one in the Outback, which has a Dual Voicecoil Subwoofer, but the Leggy only has a single - thus there is an unused set of sub outputs......second sub, anyone? :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
