Hello there Tesla Patriots! Cap'n Electric here.
Yes, there is a substantial upgrade to the 'premium' sound speakers (s or x, 2015-2021)
that are installed. There are several great speakers on the market,
I've found a pair of 6.5 that blow away the original speakers for under $100 for the pair.
They are the Infinity Kappa 62ix series. I am not an affiliate, just trying to help.
Here is the link:
Amazon.com
They are $99 usd at the time of this writing.
These have a spectrum far greater than the original speakers, they fit perfectly in 2015-2021 s or x.
If you'd like to watch a video on this check this out, again, not me, no affiliation, but I haven't done a video and this is pretty thorough, it shows the installation as well as the stats of old and new by the numbers.
The difference is vast, it is well worth your time to upgrade.
Old speakers technically speaking were missing low and upper ranges as well as the power is also limited.
Please reference the video, pay particular attention to the magnet on the original premium speaker (tiny),
compared to the Infinity speaker, which is almost 4x of that magnet.
Hope this helps, my name is John Trusello, if you'd like to hit me up with any tech questions, i'm sometimes here,
and will try to answer, i am not and have not been a tesla tech, i was a nuclear weapons tech and a quality assurance inspector in the navy and have taken the s and x apart without a manual.
I wish tesla asked for my help with some of the design, there are flaws on the tesla s handle, should have been metal innards, and the x has an issue with the upper control arm, 2 part seal, not sure why, seems to always degrade over time.
Anyway, here is the link to the video :
