[QUOTE="Kai Winters, post: 2779620, member: 574994"] Hi all, I am brand new to this forum and car audio forums in general but not new to car stereo. I am thinking about replacing my 5 year old MB Quart Discus DKD-116, 6 1/2", door speakers with a new pair and need some advice please. My music ranges from Frank Sinatra, Annie Lennox to AC/DC depending on the mood. I prefer quality but at a modest budget. I do crank up the volume to "annoying" levels but not all the time. I have looked at the info and specs for: MB Q Discus DKF-116 coax and DSF-216 comp...I really like the sound of the MB's. They remind me somewhat of my Paradigm home speakers. Polk MMC-650 coax, db6500 comp and db6501 comp. I have not listened to Polk speakers but will try to later on today. I am open to suggestions of other brands within the $200 to $250 price range. My current system: JVC KD-AR770 head unit Eclipse 36401 amp (4 channel running 2 channels to fronts and back channels to sub) 4x40 watt...does a good job for my tastes. MB Quart Discus DKD-116 front speakers MB Quart DWC 254/258 10" sub in enclosure sitting on rear seat floor hehehe. The head unit is brand new (it replaces a 5 year old Alpine CDS-7892 so I can enjoy all my music on a usb drive instead of cd's and honestly the JVC has much better sound quality than the Alpine which surprised me) while the rest is 5 years old.
