Default Need opinions for speakers for 96 dx hatchback

Yeah I'm new here but I had some installed a couple years ago and my factories sounded better so I got them uninstalled. I got a radio put in instead.
I don't need a sub or anything but something that reproduces highs and lows well and doesn't sound tinny. I can read specs all I want but it would cost too much to keep having them re- and un- installed to see what they sounded like. They sounded good in the store....
I figured here would be the most logical place to ask.

Thanks

i like alpines and infinitys. infinitys have a bit strongertweeter so you will get more highs, and the alpines will putout a little more mid range, but they both put out decent bass. both the infinity reference series and alpine type s series are pretty affordable.

also if you want to save money you could look at the three way pioneers. They put out a good overall sound,but they are not high power speakers and will distort at a lower volumethan the infinity or alpine

keep it jdm and see if there are any Gathers available.I have them as standard in my SiR and they sound really well,i listen to drum n bass so good quality is essential in all ranges and the Gathers seem to cope amply well enough and plus they keep it honda.

Thanks guys. I appreciate it. I'll check them out. I know those are good but at the time I was trying to save money (well, I am now too...).
Also, would it make that much difference if I only had the front ones installed, since I'm (usually) in the front seat? I have a "car" friend that recommended this for money's sake.

Thanks again. Any other opinions are welcome!!

I would recommend Polk audio....i had them in my coupe and they sounded really good....most ppl dont like Polk's stuff..but i love Polk audio....

And about only doing the front...i wouldnt cuz its going to sound soooo much better if you have all 4 speakers in there instead of two.... and if you do only put the front ones in.....Please unplug the rears.......
