I found what led me to believe Slate might be developing an infotainment option that has good audio quality.

About 40 minutes into the Rich Rebuilds video Eric Kyper says this:

You know, we know people are going to bring insane audio systems to this. Our accessories team is dialing up some pretty amazing things.​

I took the highlighted sentence to mean amazing infotainment things, but he could have been referring to amazing accessories in general.

I’m guessing Eric was referring to plug and play capability for DIN head units.

That, and more.

They're "systems thinkers" designing a vehicle knowing that people will want to enjoy a sound system that sounds great.

Forethought vs. afterthought for a better-sounding result.

If that was completely true they would not be showing speakers mounted in the face of the dash.

If that's one of the options, why not?

Is it bad, sound wise, to put speakers facing out of the dash? My high-end desk speakers are pointing at me, so I'm confused.
Edit: to clarify, I'm genuinely curious, haven't heard this before.
