About the MB Quart PS1-316

Alexander H.

The best of MB Quart

MB Quart's Premium Series car speakers provide the best possible sound from an audio industry mainstay. The MB Quart PS1-316 3-way component system features two 6-1/2" woofers, two 4" midrange drivers, two 1" tweeters, and two external crossovers. The paper/mica hybrid woofer cone and midrange driver use a unique design and responsive construction for a natural-sounding midrange and impactful bass response. The 1" magnesium dome tweeter handles the highs with precision and power, while MB Quart's WideSphere™ technology expands the tweeter's dispersion pattern for a wider, more lively soundstage.

Product Research

Features

Size Classification Note: Some manufacturers, including MB Quart, call this size woofer a 6½". Because it requires a larger cutout than a standard 6½" speaker, Crutchfield has traditionally referred to this size as a 6¾". Please enter your vehicle information to confirm fit.

Woofer Basket: The woofers feature PA66 composite (plastic) baskets, reinforced with 30% glass fiber.

Woofer Terminals: The input terminals are spring posts that will accept up to 14 gauge bare wire.

Magnet Cover: The cover on the woofer magnet can be removed to slightly decrease the depth (by 0.05") and the magnet diameter (by 0.33").

Midrange: Like the woofer, the midrange baskets are PA66 composite (plastic), reinforced with 30% glass fiber. They are 4" drivers and they can be top or bottom mounted. The inputs are quick slide terminals; 0.187" (+) and 0.110" (-). The four mounting ears are scored; two can be broken off to mount the midrange in factory 4" applications that only use two mounting screws. Grilles are not included for the midrange.

Midrange Dimensions:

  • Depth (top mount): 2.118"
  • Mounting height: 0.27"
  • Flange height: 0.143"
  • Depth (bottom mount): 2.261"
  • Tweeter protrusion: 0.127"
  • Cutout diameter: 3.553"
  • Frame diameter: 4.023"

Tweeter Mounting: The supplied mounting hardware allows you to surface-mount or flush-mount the tweeters.

Tweeter Mounting Dimensions:

  Surface Mount Flush Mount
Mounting Height 1.04" 0.425"
Depth 0.5" (screw depth) 0.75"
Frame Diameter 1.92" 2.36"
Cutout Diameter N/A 2.01"

Tweeter Phase Lens: The phase lens can be removed from the front of the tweeter, narrowing its dispersion pattern. This is useful when the tweeter is pointed directly at the listener.

Crossovers: Each outboard 3-way crossover has a 12dB/octave slope. Depending on which positive terminal is used, the tweeter has three output level settings; choose -3 dB, 0 dB (flat), or +3 dB. The inputs and outputs are screw terminals that will accommodate bare wire or spade connectors up to 0.3" wide. There are four screw holes in the base of each crossover for mounting.

Crossover Dimensions:

  • Width: 3.57"
  • Length: 7.3"
  • Height: 1.4"

Q
If Iâ??m getting the Q-Forms Kick Panel in my Toyota 94 pickup, will these fit? The 6.5 and the tweeters will be installed in the kick panel. And the 4in will be installed in the stock panel. Will that work?
[ Adrian  Jul 04, 2022 ]

These MB Quart PS1-316 Premium Series components are probably the best deal in a 3 way setup you can find, Adrian! It sounds like you are going to use this Kick panel pod below specifically for the 89-95 Toyota Pickups. Q forms states that giving exact mounting depths is not possible, since it will depend to some extent on the space available behind the factory kick panel, but Q-Logic advertises 4" minimum there which should fit the woofer on the MB 3 ways since they have a mount depth of 2.567". You'll of course have to run the speaker wires to the mid range driver from the crossover. This setup should sound fantastic, I see no issues here Adrian! https://www.crutchfield.com/p_044C400229/Q-Forms-Kick-Panel-Enclosures-Gun-metal-dark-gray.html

Q
Will these work in a 07 Ferrari F430?
[ Brian  May 31, 2022 ]

A
Unfortunately, we do not have fitment information for that vehicle. Our database is the largest in the world, but it is not 100%. As we have never had the chance to disassemble an 07 Ferrari F430, we are unsure. You may need to take measurements yourself and/or consult with a custom installer that specializes in such installation. We are more than happy to assist however we can once you have an idea of what space you have/ what custom work you can/will have to do. I would recommend reaching out to an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat. They should be able to help once you have and idea of the space you have.

Q
Will all six of these speakers just bolt in a 2004 Toyota Tundra double cab that came with the factory jbl set up? I am wondering if my truck has a place in the doors for the 4" mids?
[ Jason  Aug 07, 2021 ]

While there is a factory installed midrange in your pickup, the midrange in this speaker is not going to be an easy fit and will require some custom work and modifications to be installed. Our system is not set up to check fitment of the midrange drivers in these component speakers at this time and I recommend contacting an advisor by calling 1-800-324-9695 to check if we have something that can fit

Q
Would this work to be a full replacement in my 2008 Honda Civic Si coupe, doors, tweeters, and rear panels?

I sent them back and spent the extra cash on some morels 603 and I'm glad I did ...this is not the old MB quarts
[ eric  May 27, 2021 ]

This 3-way set is designed as a full range / right-left system allowing each driver to give a little extra at its frequency range but blend together as one. By relocating any of the three speakers behind you it will take away from the full range sound. The fronts will sound weak and back will sound muffled. Keep all six speakers in front of your ears. Hope this helps
[ RAYMOND  May 26, 2021 ]
Q
I am trying to splurge and buy speakers immediately:) Will this MB Quart set #049PS1316 fit in my 2001 Audi TT quattro Roadster convertible with Bose system? It calls for two 6.5" in the doors, two 2" tweeters in doors, and two 6.5" speakers in the rear panels. Will this set fit in all of that?? Thanks! Scott
[ Scott  Apr 06, 2021 ]

This set of component speakers will not work in the speaker layout you described. That layout needs a 2-way component speaker and another set of coaxial speakers. We have advisors that can be reached by calling 1-800-324-9695 who can help give a recommendation on new speakers that meet this layout
[ JASON  Apr 18, 2021 ]  Staff
Q
Do the 4" speakers have grilles as well?

the 4" speakers do not come with grills
