Yes - I have JL tweets in the dash. Rockford Fosgate 6x9 in the rear.

Well I got the MB Quarts for a good price. What would you recommend?

are the tweeters removable? if so, maybe you can compare the sound of those v. the JL tweeters and whichever you like better u can stick up on the dash. I'm no expert, but im think there is a way to use just the MB Q's woofers and the JL tweets by using a crossover of some sort.

The Discus has a xover on the frame for the tweeter (you can see the little circuit board with the wires coming off of it in the photos).

If you clip one of those wires the tweeter is gone and then it's a mid only.

The Discus has no mid low-pass xover - that's only on the higher-end MBQ speakers.

Elduderino,

What is your take on the MB Quarts Discus DKE 116's? How would you rate them?
