Yes

MBQ amps are like these higher end amps from RF. https://www.crutchfield.com/S-XawrYvZ3Vc4/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=130&I=675T1001BD

Produced in same factory as RF but different design.  I've heard some really good things about them.  Good Luck!

Here's what I've gathered from the whole MB quart/rockford deal.  Rockford has undergone quite a few changes recently, but basically it has taken the form of american "big buiness".  ORIGINALLY, rockford bought MB Quart but continued to manufacture and engineer the brand in germany.  It has since closed that facility and is now manufacturing the quarts in the same facility as LIGHTNING AUDIO, who has also been bought up by Rockford.  The new product lines are also being engineered by by Lightning engineers.  Of course, i dont have any affiliation with any of those comanies so i really dont know, but the sales rep at the shop i buy from gave me the low down.  The shop also discontinued selling quarts and RF because of complaints and returns and they didnt want to sell people products of unknown quality.  All might be well with the beloved quarts, but for the money you pay for them, I would go with another of the many high end manufactureers our there.
