mb quart premium line?'s

[97avalonxls]

does anyone know anything about the newest and last year's mb quart premium line?the PSD and PCE, E being the newest, I can tell that aside from about 100 dollars and the ability to mount the E's coaxially, they seem to be the same speaker, any input?

I don't have any experience with mb quarts but if you're looking for a good component speaker to mount coaxially check out the Image Dynamics Chameleons.

i actually don't want them mounted coaxially, I have a great tweet sport in the avalon and I would like to take advantage of it.

MB Quart makes quality component sets. Their higher end lines are worth the extra cash.

for the money, i think the focal access line is the best buy. Though, i have the mb quarts and like it a lot too.

I have a set of PSD216, and I liked them alot but I upgraded to DLS iridiums, so if you want to save some money, I am selling the set. They sounded really good in my Camry, the musicomp crossover is sweet, you can bi-wire your set if you have a 4 channel amp, thats what I did, they sounded awesome. the tweets need to be set at -3db since they were up in the pods by the mirrors.

i appriciate the offer eddie, but I need the 210's, the Avalon takes 4" mid bass drivers. was there any reason you chose to upgrade?

[eddiem67]

I went to a 3 way set, wanted silk tweeter instead.

You need to put in at least 5.25 (6.5 would be better) in there, 4 inch will not give you the midbass you need up front. 4" are more for midrange.

i think that I am going to persue that jl 8w3v2 and the five channel amp to add to my midbass. the MB Quart 4" really to provide great imaging and superior midrange

[eddiem67]

but you will definitely lack midbass upfront

[97avalonxls]

i realize that I wil still be lacking up front, but no worse than now right? I can appriciate what is curretly lacking, but Ithink that any increase in midbass will help a good deal. Also there really is not anywhere upfront to add another driver. Kick panels are not an option since I'm6'4" and not willing to give up any leg room and the doors aren't deep enough to acomodate a much larger speaker.

How much you want for the PSD216. Would s/h be actual rate? Thanks, I believe 5.25 can be installed in a Avalon or we shall soon find out.
