I am looking to put two sets of components in my scion xb. More than likely im gonna go w/ fiberglass door pods in the front,and im working on some trick ideas in the back.... there is not much trunk space in the back ...if u know the car...u know what i mean.So what do you guys think of these components, or do you think that there is something that will sound better w/door pods? Im gonna br running the 4 ch.memphis if that helps at all thanks in advance https://www.mbquart.de/en/produkte/car/qline/produkt.php?nr=qsd_216

those look good i would go ahead and get them. i suggest bi-amping them so you can get the most out of them. one thing tough the tweet might gust be a little to bright for your taste. but i don't no your taste. most people like the soft settle sound of a fabric tweeter. those mids will be very good. mbquart is a good reliable company that you can trust. but dont settle yet there could be something you might like better.

Just be sure you like titanium dome tweeters, especially the quarts. These speakers can really shine if installed right, but if you are unable to locate the tweeter accordingly, you may find them unfavorable. Have you listened to them yet? I wonder if these are manufactured by Maxxsonics yet... -------------

How much do you plan on spending anyways?

That's my opinion. Take it, leave it, or correct me.

I was just trying to get a range. I'll look around for some though. One last question. What do you consider within reason? I know that there are people on this forum who would spend $1000 on a component set if they thought it was worth it. I personally couldn't spend that much. So do you have an approximate range?

Those speakers are sooooo nice....they are real honest to god German made MB Quart, no Singakoreachinatiwanapore sweatshop made under armed guard speakers there. Good speakers like this need a good install. Do that and they will shine.

i agree with forbidden!!! MB Quart is great stuff! I am running the pce 61/2 " seperates in the front of my 2003 suburban and I'm running JL Audio xr 61/2 " in the back doors, and they sound almost as good, and they are built in the same German plant as MB Quart!! To make it all sound right, make sure that you have a great amp to power them, and properly set up. also tweeter location is key!! P.S. If you have the Dough, get the Q series MB Quart AWESOME!!!
