Im using their nsc475 4 channel amp as it is small and I don't plan on amplifying the rears and it is a great amp. So I am sure those two amps would be fine

I've been pleasantly surprised with their low-dollar 4-channel amplifiers. I have an FX4.50 that I've used for a few years that makes good power without coloration or distortion. They offer decent onboard filtering and routing, as well. There are no balanced inputs in their lineup (that I can tell), but I wouldn't hesitate to use another one of their amplifiers in a future system.

Thank you guys. Because actually their amp are really cheap comparing to bigger brands as JL audio, Rockford and kicker.

I am running their amps, but those seem to be discontinued?

Yeah they do. I fitted them last week as I got them of fleabay for £60. They are called QM 100.

Yeap. But amazon and eBay has both of them with 2 years of warranty included, they are around 80-100 dollars with 600-800 watts respectively - 4 channels.

I've read some review ( there are just a few) that says they runs hot but other than that I haven't see anyone using it for Bmw200.3 set.

Would I'll be wasting my money on this or I should go for another amp?

The OA600 at 75w x 4 would be a match for your speaker set.

Exactly what I thinking.

I am running
MB Quart RM740.5 AMP
MB Quart RM1000.1 AMP
and no issues whatsoever with a Rockford 3sixty

I have 2011 E90 with HiFi (676) and I installed the PP82DSP 6 months ago (group buy from this forum). I'm now ready to swap out the speakers. The current pricing on the MB Quart QM200.3 is too good to pass up.

I've been playing with the fader controls lately and decided I like having the fill provided by the rears. I could just leave the stock in place, but that would leave me feeling like the job is half done.

I am determined to solve the speaker connect issues with a pigtail I will create to use the existing speaker plus in all locations.

I think this is what will connect the underseat to the existing plug in the car:

I haven't found what the doors and rear deck will require yet.

I purchased the MB Quart Qm200.3 from vminnovations and should take delivery next week. The QM 100s are shipped from the UK and will take longer, but that should give me time to figure out what I need to make the pig tails.

I'm also going to call Crutchfield tomorrow and see if they make them already.

I had a quick exchange with Nelson at Bimmertech about a new tune for the PP82DSP and he said to just tweak the eq on my existing tune.

Are the underseat subs pretty good? Not like ghetto bass but if you had no trunk sub (which I do have as well), would you be satisfied without having a trunk sub?

[Rulz]

As we mentioned before, they are not underseat subs, they are more like midbase range. What im doing is collecting all the equipment first.

MB quart 200.3
CleanSweep
JL 10' sub
AMP i need 2 or 1 with 5 channel.

Im thinking setting up a JL 10 sub in the trunk as custom enclosure where it supose to be the spare tire.

Its taking time but for summer will be ready! =)

That's where I have my sub, feel free to PM with any questions.

Some things to note:
- if you have a sealed trunk (no ski pass or folding seats), it'll be harder to get bass into the cabin. I have a sealed trunk and am generally happy wth the results, but my sub is probably working harder to push the bass into the cabin
- the flap that covers the storage compartment under the trunk floor will rattle like crazy, and will be very loud rattling outside. I cut a hole in my floorboard/cover so the woofer fires directly into the trunk, rattle is now gone from there

Good luck!

That's exactly what i have, sealed, i will definitely contact you when it comes everything together. Im getting the equipment little by little ($).

Btw, if you can send me a pic of your trunk with the wires would be great! thanks

They did make QM100 for the rears. I think they may now be discontinued but I found a pair on ebay.

Pardon the hole, I just recently did it and need to clean it up still.

[Rulz]

Great!!! it is what i was thinking, don't mind the picture, we know is on developing mode!.

Sorry, no clue.

I have a double din HU, so no harness needed. rca from my HU directly to the amp.

[mkPOTO]

The harness is pretty easy to make if you know what your doing. The main bit is finding the plug to the stock connector. Let me see if I have the part number.

I sent an email through the site, got a reply within an hour, and ordered a harness that arrived in 3 days. This all happened since last Wednesday.

Let me know. If Is like that I can do it.

I've had the MB Quart 200.3 installed in my 328xi for a while now. They are a pretty good sounding set of speakers overall but I've had some problems with the crimped on spade connectors. They have come loose at the actual crimp itself and have had issues on both front doors for me. I am going to use some proper automotive two pin connectors instead to resolve this. To anyone installing these in the future I'd recommend you either solder the spade connectors on or use a different set of connectors entirely.
