MBQuart Speaker Upgrade Project

 

Used MB Quart RSB 215 Referenze Premium Component Sets

Purchase 2 sets of  RSB215 MBQuart, they are $225 a set HERE

Task : Replace all tweeters and 5.25" speakers with new MB Quart speakers

Reason : Improve the sound quality and clarity

I am very satisfied with this upgrade.  It greatly increased the clarity/quality of the DSP sound system in my 2000 540.  I am sure these instructions would work well on a non DSP sound system as well.  No amps were replaced and no speaker wiring ran.  This is a direct replacement of 8 speakers inside the car in the stock locations.

FRONT/REAR DOOR SPEAKER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

REAR DECK SPEAKER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Stock DSP Speakers :

Front (24mm Tweeter 8ohm, 53mm Midrange 8ohm, 5.25" Midbass 8ohm)

Back (32mm Rear Tweeter 4ohm, 5.25" Midrange 8ohm

Stock amp can handle 4 ohm load all around.

Next Phases : 

Upgrade Front Door midrange (53mm driver) with something!  Haven't found a driver solution yet for this size.  Anyone know of one?  Found out the MBQuart MCD51 are in a 4.7" mount so they will not work

I replaced the weak sub box with a custom 1 cu ft sealed enclosure and a Kicker S10L7 Subwoofer.  Check it out here!
