Was talking to a friend of mine who runs a pro audio shop. This guy knows what he's talking about as he has built several vehicles that take first place in national sound quality competitions. Even took 2nd internationally and is featured in magazines. He said MB Quarts are garbage and that they are made in Korea, (or somewhere over in the far East) and are owned and operated by the same people who own Rockfart Fosgayt. That was a bit disappointing to my knowledge as I own a set of MB Quarty components. They sound good to me. Just wondering what you guys had to say about this. And if MB Quart is garbage what is considered quality?
