Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will these speakers fit my car?
A: Most car speakers are standard sizes, but mounting depth and fitting rings vary by vehicle. Check the size in the Specification tab against your vehicle, or contact CEN with your registration and we will confirm fitment and any adapters or fitting kits you need.
Q: Do I need an amplifier to run these speakers?
A: Not always. Most speakers will run from a standard head unit, but a dedicated amplifier lets them perform at their best, particularly for component sets and higher power handling models. The RMS figure in the Specification tab is the guide to how much clean power they can use.
Q: What is the difference between coaxial and component speakers?
A: Coaxial speakers combine the tweeter and woofer in one unit for a simple like-for-like upgrade. Component sets separate the tweeter and woofer with a crossover for better imaging and detail, and suit installs where sound quality is the priority.
Q: Do these come as a pair?
A: Unless stated otherwise, car speakers are sold in pairs. Check the product title and What's Included tab, which lists exactly what is in the box.
Q: Can CEN fit these speakers for me?
A: Yes. CEN offers professional installation from our Nottingham premises. Contact us to book an installation slot or ask for a fitting quote.
Q: Which Mercedes models does the Option Audio MB-100-W5 fit?
A: C-Class W205 saloon, S205 estate, C205 coupé and A205 convertible, GLC X253 and C253, E-Class W213 saloon, S213 estate, C238 coupé and A238 convertible, and the S-Class W222 saloon. See the compatibility list for model years.
Q: Do I need to cut any cables to fit the MB-100-W5?
A: No. Thanks to the plug & play design, no cables need to be damaged or plugs cut, and all original installation positions are retained.
Q: What is in the box with the MB-100-W5?
A: 2 midrange speakers, 2 tweeters including crossover network, and a Y-cable.
