MBQ Focal

I was thinkin about gettin a system for my car, which would you guys get, top of the line MB Quart components (qsd216) or the top of the line Focal Utopia components (i forget the #) but I have heard that the focals are really great and even better than mb quart and for cheaper, anyone heard both and can say anythin about em?

I personally like the the MB's better. i like the sound better, also i like the reputation that mb has had over its ammount of years experence, instead of focal's 2-3 years of existance

I think Focal has a screechy tweeter, and a hollow sounding midrange; but it is a very punchy mid, good for rock. MB Quarts have a warmer sound I think, especialy in the mid. The tweeter is smooth, although it is loud. You WILL notice the tweet.

both are really top notch sets, but if youre spending that much money you might as well go audition them at a shop

honestly though, you cant go wrong with either, theyre both some of the most widely used component sets in the sq competition world
