Anyone ever use or hear an 8" mb quart in the door of a C5? I want more midbass and the stereo shop suggested this. It is not a sub.

Yep that's what I have. I do have a seperate amp just for the 8's. That made a big differance in getting alot of bass out of them. I only paid about $100 for both 8's so don't let them rip you :)

Having 8's in the doors are a wonderful thing. Feel fortunate that you have the space to accomodate such a nice feature. I went with BA Pro 8's crossed over at around 80 hrtz or so. They help bring the bass to the front and compliment the mids in the rear. The tweets and the 8's run off of the same
RF 360 amp. In a car like ours, " If you have the room, do it."
Good luck
Tom :)
