I would recommend kicker. They're pretty good.

Well I went with Pioneers, only got the G series but I got all 4 of them and it made a huge difference, then I upgraded the HU and thats where the power really shows through. With a aftermarket HU you can really set everything to your liking and I have mine tuned in to the point that I dont even have a amp and it holds power all the way up. For about 350 bucks and a Saturday it was well worth it

Kicker's, IMO, are just your average speaker. If you want something with extremely good quality, I'd go with these.

Infinity Highs/Mids IMO are top of the line. I'm getting ready to put two of those in my front doors and two of these in my rear doors

, followed by this head unit

There is nothing wrong with Kicker brand either. They have always made quality speakers. But for Mids/Highs, go with the infinity kappas

I went with pioneer. I'm not sure which model, but they were 70 bucks per pair an they sound really good. I'm getting a head unit this summer which I'm sure will improve the sound a lot.

I like my Polk db571's, these where about $110 for all 4. Use the metra adapter plugs and the install is 20min for all 2.

These are running off of my pioneer in-dash dvd. I'd like to put a separate amp them, really like these.

Wiring is not my forte, do these install fairly easily (p&p)
