If you look around your local shops you may be able to find an MB Quart set going for a good price.

I think that is there because the VC (former) is connected to the cone

Plenty of good speakers mentioned here. Consider trying to listen to listen to some and find what you like. If it were as easy as there being one pair that simply sounds perfect for everyone, this hobby/addiction would be a lot easier.

What's your budget? Will it be powered by an amp or by a head unit?

You from Maryland? Aberdeen? I'm round Baltimore, in the Parkville area.

Why don't you call your friendly neighborhood Arc dealer?

(I don't remember the exact price off hand, I've purchased wayyy too much **** recently to itemize everything)

My ride actually never had bose. Had the standard and it came right out....I'm pretty busy with my car all ripped up for an install now. I'll prolly have time to do installs for people next summer. You may wanna contact Don pearl96 max or something like that. He lives in NJ and does installs, somewhat of a maxima specialist....

Once my systems done I'm always happy to let people demo it, but right now and for prolly 2 weeks, no tunes..... But I have high expectations for after that 2 weeks... Hit me up if you're in the neighborhood and wanna listen

I've always loved the Infinity Reference 6.5's as great budget speakers that do well off Head unit power (sorry, not 60 watts).
