Tell me what you think of my front stage.
I am planning on doing the front stage so this is going to be my setup:
Speakers - Mb Quart PCE-216
I believe it is rated for 130 rms. Does anyone have it here and what are the ups and downs?
Amp - Hifonics TX8805 - 110 rms x 4 at 4 ohm. My budget has limited me to Hifonics.
Head Unit - Sony CDX-F7715X
I will most likely look for some cheap rear fill later.
I am open to any suggestions or tips. This is a semi-budget system for me.

I was suprised when i found out that circuit city sold eclipse, but they are a little pricey the one i looked at and liked was $250 CD3000. The sony one looks very clean and not busy. I found one pioneer one that looks within my price range and has about the same screen. Pioneer DEH-P5800MP

If youve actually heard those products together and like them, then go for. Although my guess is you have not, I would personally look elsewhere.
BTW..Shop online for restricted products...ftL

Who is an authorized dealer for MB Quart? Also, I've ordered stuff from those sites before and they came on time and functioned perfectly. You just have to make sure you do everything right the first time or get best buy or some place to do it for you. I've heard each individual item except speakers but not the whole thing as a whole. If you buy everything from for example best buy it would cost 2x as much. The only thing I think is kinda risky is the amp.
Ok, I have around 600 dollars to spend and i need to junk the bose and get new front stage with HU. What would you buy?

Then should i buy everything from local places? Who sells MB Quart around Orlando? No one. The only place i've seen sell ok quality stuff is Sound Advice. What bad experiences have you had from buying from legit online sites? You can buy the repair master warranty for 2 years.

Well technically speaking Im not supposed to sell either to you, that would be breaking the rules of my contracts. Although Ive been known to break the rules a bit to help others out.
Theyre supposed to installed by the dealer. Being that theres only 2 dealers in the U.S. that may be a bit difficult to have done. Either way youll be OK.
Ill check on the MBQs when I get back. Dunno off the top of my head, since I dont sell much at all, especially with Rainbow as an alternative.

So are you saying that Rainbows are better than MBQ or they just sell better? I guess I could get some local place over here to install it, I believe Audio Fashion in orlando are authorized sellers of diamond they should be able to install it. When you are checking for the MBQ also check for some rainbows under $300. Thanks for your help.

Theyre better all around IMO as well as many others. Typically better products Are better sellers.
Thats easy...SLC265s.
Theres someone floating around on here that is more than capable of installing them, rather than paying top dollar at a shop.

Are you talking about slickrick up there? Do you sell the eclipse CD3000? I also need to find a amp for all of this...i though of 4 channel so i could use it for my rears later also. But 2 channels are cheaper so i might just get a 2 channel and leave the back alone.
