From the looks of their website TODAY, they seem to be now manufacturing their own speakers (Mids)
Ok, I had no idea they gave you a choice.

A Google search of Rainbow speakers brought me here BMW speakers from IQ Car Audio. Interesting. I'm going to have to see what price differences I can find now...

EDIT - $130 difference between BMW E39 Car Speakers by Rainbow Car Audio from IQ Car Audio. and BMW Speakers Upgrade for E39 BMW 528i, 540i, 525i, 530i, M5 Sedans & Wagons | BSW: Audio Upgrades For BMWs. God, I love the internet.

Either way, whenever I decide to start upgrading my speakers in the X, I'll look for MB's and make them work.

Sorry for the interruption, back to our regular programming
