[QUOTE="ronrex1, post: 3531187, member: 571213"] I have a question concerning component speakers.Well here it goes. I was wondering if the Evolution C5-650 by JL Audio is in the same league as Focal and MB Quart. I know these speakers are German built and when I called JL Audio's engineering department the representative that I spoke with had a lot of good things to say about them namely that they have excellent midbass response and the tweeter is a silk dome which in his opinion is superior to titanium or metal tweeters. I have listened to both Focal and MB Quart and they both sounded far better than most car speakers. And not to say that MB Quart is better than Focal but I went to a local dealer and listened to the premium line and I could not believe my ears these speakers were astonishingly clear. At that time the Sales rep said that MB Quart makes the best speakers hands down. Although when I went back to the store a few months later to purchase these speakers they said they no longer carry MB Quart because there quality went down and they only carry JL Audio which they said is a better speaker. I have something to get off my chest when I listened to the MB Quart speakers they were being powered by a JL Audio slash series amp and for all those out there that say JL Audio is overhyped B.S. they make some very good stuff if not the best, No its not cheap in price by the standards of mainstream audio equip and on the same hand its not so expensive that only the well heeled can afford it but it is an extremely good product as far as amps go. Again maybe you get what you pay for. [/QUOTE]
