Rockford Fosgate

Hi Guys

Does anyone here have any experience with the Rockford Fosgate integration speakers for BMW? I find them appealing because their tweeters are already in a new housing, and they do different speaker fitments for the front/rear doors, and for the rear shelf (which, e.g. Focal IFBMW-S doesn't fit into without cutting the surrounding ABS on the woofer, and putting a housing around the tweeter)

The Rockford Fosgates I'm particularly looking at are;

T3-BMW2 for front doors
T3-BMW3 for rear shelf

Does anyone have any experience of them?

Thanks
Sunny

I would go for focal k2 power 4" on sale, they sound better! You will need adapter for doors & just cut 2 corner & will fit front center & rear!

I think those Fosgate's are comparable to the MB Quartz for the BMW

Go to Crutchfield, I think the k2 still on sale! What system do you have? I had the standard so I bought 3 set & have one speaker left for center.

It's made in Germany by Klippel. I believe new MB Quarts are made in China.
