Component Speakers - Under $300-400

[Ianaconi 10+ year member]

Hey guys!

I would like to know which speakers you guys recommend for front doors.

They need to be 6.25".

I was thinking on getting MB QUART PCE216. What do you guys think?

Currently I am using Diamond HEX S500s in 8litters kickpanels and 2x100 amplifiers and I really like them.

But I am changing cars and I will beed a 6.25" component set, and I will put them on the doors. A few people told me the MB QUART are great for that.

What do you guys think?

Any other recommendation? Also if possible recommend an amplifier to go with the set.

the rainbow audio cmx's are 300, very nice set for the price. great midbass, precise mids, dynamic tweeter. great sound reproduction, too.

I've got a set of CDT EF-61CFi w/ Satnet 560 and TW-25 I could be persuaded to part with.

And an Elemental Designs 9.4 amp.

And a Coustic XM-7 active crossover.

Drop me a line.

Guys, another thing.

I am from Brazil but I am going to the US on December 3rd. Gonna be staying a few days in NY first, then heading to Colorado where I will be working till April.

After that I will spend a few days in Miami then head back to Brazil. Where is the best place? Should I just get on the Internet?

What about rainbow audio cmx's? Are they good if installed on doors? Which amplifier should I get?

yea you definately cant go wrong with rainbows. theres a deler on here- hes in pennsylvania. Deaden your doors to get the most of your speakers, i dk what to power them with, but i heard of people throwin 200 rms to them, someone who owns them can chime in.

Definetly deaden your doors...its a fairly cheap upgrade for what its worth. Do you like the sound the Diamonds offer? Do you want something else, well obviosuly, but what more are you looking for?

mine sound pretty darn good in my doors. they are running off a diamond audio d3 400.4 (182 x 2 @ 4 ohms) and they sound awesome.

the only dealer I'd ever give a penny to for Rainbows is Don. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

are the cmx's close in sound to the Germanium's or is there a world of difference?
