I was recently using Diamond Audio D6 components and loved them! IMO, MB Quart has kind of fallen off a bit. Focals are very nice as well.

I'm with 08 EVO, JL Audio's in the back is solid, and MB Quarts are great speakers too, especially if you like to hear the "highs", great front speakers, they handle a good amount of watts and don't distort easily. I have the MB Quarts in front and the JL's in the back, love them both.

I've got MB Quart and love them... Boston are awesome, but over-priced. JL are good too...
