gattiboy13 Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 I have alpine Type S components as of now but want to upgrade in this price range and thought these were a great deal? Are they nice sounding? My ears are use to CDT. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_68133_MB-Quart-PVM216.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soccerballzs Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 MB Quartz used to be good in the old school days when they were built in germany. They are not as good these days. For price though may be good deal. Maybe someone else is using them and can give you advice. I run RE Audio xxx Components and they are clean and loud more of a sq speaker not spl. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/garage/vehicle/2438-jeep-commander/I Pioneer P99RSAmpere 38002-Ampere 125/44-6.5 inch Hertz HSK XL Mids4-8 inch JL Audio ZR Midwoofer 2-5.25 Satori Mids2-Morel Tweeters, 2 Hertz Milles 3 inch on A pillars2-Hertz Silk tweeters DC Audio Level 5/12 Skyhigh Wire Mechman 320 XS Power D3100MO Funniest Thread of the Year 2013: http://www.stevemead...dy-being-a-pos/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrd6 Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 How's your install currently? I don't really like the type s speakers and not even hearing the mbs I would guess they would be an upgrade. However, if you haven't takenthe time to properly deaden and install etc that might be a better use of funds. What are you hoping to gain by changing speakers?

The type s are very harsh on the highs and mids cant handle any midbass. I have them at 125hz and they still get sloppy when cranked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

03 Xtreme Fosgate Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 I'd say get them for that price,can't be that bad compared to what they use to be. Honestly I had some sets of the MBQ's back in the late 90's and I was disappointed in them. As far as the RE speakers go they're no different than the MBQ's are in quality nowadays,neither one are what they use to be. I believe purplesyrup bought some MBQ's to try and he was really impressed especially considering they were powered by his head unit only,they sounded real good in his youtube video he posted.. I'd try them for the price,doubt you'll be disappointed with them so get em.
