Hey, I'm glad he liked them so much. When he called his complaint about the MB Quarts was "distant, hollow vocals". Well, the X5 door midwoofers are basically inside a tube when they're mounted. The OEM mids help fix taht, but when you take them out and go two-way components up front, all your vocals have to come from the tweeter.

MBQ tweeters start at 4500 Hz. a/d/s/, DLS, Morel, and Dynaudio tweeters play down to 2000-2500 Hz depending. That's an octave more energy. These are playing down to 3200 or so - not quite as far, but a lot lower down and so a lot more vocals.

We don't own a speaker factory, but we do buy drivers direct from various European factories and have some made for us at a factory in the Midwest (those are 6x9 woofers).

Those mids and tweeters are made in Europe, tweets in Germany, mids in Denmark or France, and the passive xovers are assembled by us and designed on a computer.
