What Are the Different Types of Jeep Speakers?

Let’s be honest—your Jeep's factory speaker system gets the job done, but it’s far from impressive. If you’re craving better sound on your drives, whether you're cruising downtown or hitting the trails with the top off, upgrading your Jeep speakers is the way to go.

But with so many speaker types and upgrade options out there, it can get a bit overwhelming. We’re here to simplify it for you. Let’s break down the different types of Jeep speakers and what you should look for when planning your audio upgrade.

Two Main Types of Jeep Speakers

All Jeep speakers generally fall into one of two categories: coaxial (full-range) and component speakers. Each has its own strengths, and your choice will depend on how much you're looking to upgrade your sound experience.

Coaxial (Full-Range) Speakers

Coaxial speakers are also known as full-range speakers. They combine all speaker elements—like the woofer and tweeter—into one single unit. These are the most straightforward option when upgrading from factory speakers and are widely available in a range of prices and quality levels.

They're a great starting point if you’re looking for a simple plug-and-play solution with better clarity and louder volume than stock options.

Component Speakers

If you're chasing that premium sound quality, component speakers are the way to go. These systems break the speaker setup into separate parts, each designed to handle a specific frequency range. With the right components, you'll hear your music in fuller detail—more bass, more clarity, more everything.

Here’s a breakdown of the key types of component speakers:

• Subwoofers: These speakers handle the deep bass tones. A quality subwoofer adds punch and richness to your music—perfect for hip-hop, rock, or EDM lovers who want to feel the beat.

• Midbass and Midrange Speakers: These tackle the frequencies between the sub and the highs. Midbass brings depth, while midrange speakers handle vocals and instruments in the center of the sound spectrum.

• Tweeters: Just as vital as subwoofers, tweeters bring clarity to high-end frequencies—think cymbals, vocals, and synths. A good tweeter makes your sound crisp and vibrant.

How to Start Upgrading Your Jeep Speakers

If you're wondering where to begin, start with an OEM soundbar upgrade. This provides more volume and clarity—especially important when your Jeep’s top is off. From there, add a high-performance subwoofer to bring in rich, low-end bass.
