I am the kind of person who hates a Long ass review, so I will make mine short and to the point. These are insane, if you are leery buy them you will NOT be disappointed.After years of use I finally replaced my MB Quart PCE 216's with these and these are even better. Due to the Design of the PCE's they get tore up when installing, but they fixed that on these. Notice how the plastic comes up past the rubber surround on these. I could not find a review of people really pushing these but I went for it and they handle it so well. I am running a soundstream Tarantula 960X4 bridged to these. **Yes that is 480 watts per side**. They handle it like its nothing.

In case you are to lazy to read the paragraph let me sum it up here:

running them with 980 watts total (***480 watts per side***)

sounds awesome literally had my friend get out of the car cause they are so loud(parked of course)

BUY THEM

Amazon had these speakers for far less than MSRP. The shop I had them installed at said they were some of the best speakers they had ever used. I like the sound. The crossover is huge! be sure you have space for it.


4 out of 5 stars Maxxsonics does MB Quart well   February 16, 2010

I've always been a fan of MB Quart ever since I got a pair of 6.5 Discus Coaxils for the rear deck of my 01 Hyundai Elantra about 6 years. Even to this day they sound great. But when I heard they got acquired by Maxxsonics I too thought the quality would go down. Strange enough, I heard mixed comments since the take over. I've READ mostly good reviews about them but HEARD they were bad. I'm not the type that will judge something without at least trying it out first so since the price was right I decided to give these a chance. From what I can see and hear MB Quart hasn't loss much of anything.
I'm pushing all 4 MBQ speakers with a Pioneer GM-D9500F rated at 75x4 Pioneer Gmd9500f Class D 4 Ch 800w Amp Stage 4and they sound great. The highs are on the bright side but sound clear without being too sharp plus they bring out all the music high notes nicely. I heard stuff I didn't hear before. But the tweeters can get harsh at higher volumes so I compensate using my Kenwood's EQKenwood KDC-HD942U USB/AAC/WMA/MP3 CD Receiver with Built-In HD Radio. The speakers really shine when playing anything with a lot of highs and vocals but can handle pretty much anything well. Overall, I think these are great. Me giving these 4 instead of 5 stars is only because I can't give it 4.5 stars.

Bought two sets of these for Xmas to replace the factory Bose speakers in my Maxima. Had them professionally installed and holy hell are these speakers incredible. The wide sphere technology in the tweeters disperses the highs at such a larger radius than your normal dome tweeters that it literally fills the car with sound. Usually your ears can pinpoint where the highs are coming from but these literally envelope you. It's hard to stop grinning like an idiot while driving. I had the tweeters installed in the doors based on some of the other reviews I've read on here. The highs are VERY crisp and VERY bright, but can get a bit shrill at higher volumes.I actually had to turn the treble down! I put on "The Great Gig in the Sky" by Pink Floyd and the detail and richness was unbelievable! It literally made the hairs stand up on my arms.

One of the reasons I bought these components was their sensitivity is greater than a lot of the speakers I researched. The wider the sensitivity range,the lower and higher frequencies, or sound, can be produced. Hence you"re able to hear more of how the artist originally created the song. For rock and jazz it makes a huge difference. To test the bass I put on Hov's The Blueprint 3 and it was studio quality sound. The midrange produces bass that hits low, clean and tight. Can't replace a subwoofer of course but it's close. The crossovers are aluminum cased and very solidly constructed.

One thing i did want to mention was that I have a Clarion CX609 receiver instead of the factory Bose system. Since it has a nine band equalizer, my review may be a little biased since I have more flexibility to tune the speakers. When I first got the MB quarts installed, it took me about a half hour of adjusting to get the sound I wanted. Regardless of tuning however, these components still sound 1000 times better than the Bose.

The guys who did my install were extremely impressed. Like many people in the audio industry, they thought MB Quart made sub par products after being bought my Maxxonics. It completely changed their perception, as well as mine. I'm so glad I bought these. For the price offered on Amazon, it may as well be stealing for what you get. I've never been more excited to drive! I'm buying two sets for my brothers truck as a graduation gift. MB Quart has brought aural bliss to my ears and a smile to my face! What a fantastic set of components!!




5 out of 5 stars Wow, that is about all I can say... wow.   January 13, 2010

Those out there that have the delusion that MB Quart lost their magic when Maxxsonics bought the company is just that, delusional. These speakers are so crisp, and tight. They have great bass response, and the highs are like nothing I've ever heard. I'm powering mine with a fosgate 75 X 2 amp, and though it is underpowered for their rating, I can't imagine anything more. [...].

They list the PVI 216 as the best 6.5inch components that MONEY CAN BUY...
