Anyone here running MB Quart PVI 210 4" Component Speakers in their E60?

Just wondering what the build and sound quality of these speakers are like?

Thinking of using these as a drop-in replacement for the front/rear OEM speakers.

Input appreciated.

Hey man! I don't have them in my E60, but did have MB's in another vehicle of mine with a total set up. they ROCK - the best mid to high range speakers I've ever heard honestly. I don't think you can go wrong with them.

+1

I have had 2 sets of MB Quart components in a system build, and they are phenomenal speakers. With speakers, you get what you pay for. I don't think you could do wrong with them, as long as you power them with a decent amp.

I used to have MB Quarts in my old 3 series to replace the factory mids and tweeters, made a big difference.

focal has a 4" component set that will fit our doors, I'm getting ready to buy a set of herts audio 3" midrange and tweet set that will fit our doors also. Just thought I'd throw some options out there.

Hertz are way better than the MBquart owned by Maxsonics.

Focal is better than the MbQuart as well,

depending on the model Hertz higher end might not be as good as Focal high end stuff but still very very good product can't go wrong with either of these two brands.

the old Mbquart when it was built in germany now that was the Isht!! Best stuff ever speciall the QSD line, can't go wrong with that.
the employees of the old MbQuart bought the factory back and started their own line same engineering same everything as the high end MBQuart and is called German Maestro, ive heard great things about them, they are just starting to show up here in the states.

hope this helps.

Tell me about it! I'm very disappointed with the OEM sound system in the 5 series.

Then again, if you want quality sound in ANY car, you need to spend the money to get exactly the sound you want.
