Been searching for this. Door and/or dash speaker crossover frequency??

I'm slowly putting together a new stereo system in my 2016 BRZ and this one question has been eluding me no matter how much I look around. I've figured out that the stock amp and/or headunit have crossovers built into them, but I have not been able to find out what frequency it's at.

Thus far I've installed a new amp and door woofers, but they currently kind of sound like crap because they aren't being crossed over and are playing full range.

Does anyone know where the door and dash speakers crossover with each other?? I have to assume it's somewhere between 500-800hz~ please help!

I tried to figure this out once, the dash gets full as well, and has caps, I tried to look once but the caps either are not labeled with the capacitance, or the label is glued to the body. as far as the stock amp goes, someone really bored with an Oscope would have to figure that out. If I had an Oscope I guess I could figure it out. who wants to buy me an Oscope?


maybe someone else knows

I have't pulled the door speakers but I have always assumed they were actively crossed over by the amp.

i don't believe the door speaker have any correction applied to them. they definitely don't have any crossover components. i believe they are just full range.
