    could someone help me ID these speakers?

    Those were the original "stealth" speakers from MB Quart 1993. The tweeter is the QM 19.02 NX later called the RTC19. The woofer was the QM 160 TC/S. The whole idea behind it was a coaxial that would fit behind a factory grille for stealth mounting. The larger plastic frame Quarts would not do...

    Simple question for all you audio experts

    Depends on the amp. Depends on if you want to get radio reception. Some class D amps kill your reception, some do not. If that is important to you, ask around. If radio reception is not, bang for the buck is hard to beat with class D.

    Shallow mount subs?

    A pair of 10's in the small cab of a pickup would likely be fine and many will work in .75 cF that enclosure offers. The main thing you need to determine is what the maximum depth subwoofer you can use in there. Most subwoofer manufacturers have a subwoofer line with a ~5" depth behind the...

    The first mass production of SPG started on March 20, 2006 with shipments to dealers commencing on March 29, 2006. Manufacturing development began in 2004. SPG is built in Peabody, MA. Whether you are burping or listening to music, the potential exists to cause damage to the subwoofer. With...

    It is not oval. An oval has a constant varying radius around the perimeter. If you bisect a circle, separate the 2 arcs and connect them with 2 parallel lines you get the net shape of this subwoofer. SPG has a racetrack shape.

    Boston Acoustics Neo 3r Kortec tweeters are 6 ohms

    http://bostona.com/manuals/Neo_Type-S_Man.pdf The Neo 3r & Neo Type-S are essentially the same. The Type-S uses the new quick-release mounting system but the Kortec subchassis is the same as the older Neo 3r. red metallic
