never heard them, but i'm not a BA fan.. their mids always sounded too muddy for me.. and i never liked their tweets.. much better options for cheaper

i've got a set of boston acoustic z6 in my z, which i believe is the older version of the spz and i think they are amazing. the sound is really clean and crisp.

i wanted it to look like stock so i mounted the tweeter over the place of the stock one, and used a spacer for the mid to mount in the stock location.
