I have been told by the local dealer that I used to work for that the quality control on the mb quart line has went down hill over the last couple years but are still one of the better sounding consumer level products on the market. I have always loved the sound of boston speakers and have never had or heard of a major problem with them. Obvously I am sure there has been, I just never heard of it. Unfortunatly like the guy above me, I have never heard of AVI and while I have heard of Macrom I have absolutly no experience with them and never really looked into them enough to give an educated opinion of them. From the retailer stand point I believe that the margin in the Quart line does exceed that of the Boston line, but by what percentage I am unsure of.double-secret reverse-osmosis speaker-cone-induced high-level interference distortion, Its a killer

Tim, I own Bostons in my own ride, and they're great.  You may also want to check out Focal if you can.My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.
