MB Quart RCE-268 Feedback?

Looking to upgrade the stock sound on my '05 SCrew. Will have a 5 ch amp and Eclipse head unit, Solobaric sub under rear seat.

I'm looking for the premier 6x8 repalcement for the stock speakers. The MB Quart RCE-268 seems like nicest one I can find. Any feedback? Is there a better 6x8 option?

Thumbs up slightly different

I just installed (4) MB Quart PCE-216's running of a 4 channel 300 amp JL Audio amp. They are amazing.

FYI, after moving the tweeters everywhere, I installed them in the center of the speakers. You have to get further away than is possible in the truck, to have them seperate IMO.

I prefer a round speaker. These were installed with an adapter plates, but no cutting was required.

I would also recommend Dynamat, or some sound material. Night and day differance. Spent 20 some hours testing and installing, and it is still not where it will be.

Hope this helps

oh, I am in a 2005 F-250 CC PS

Memphis makes a really nice 5.25" component set that includes an installation bracket designed to fit to existing 6x8 holes.
