If you have no subs...

These for the 6x9s: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshow...number=264-837

And If you want coaxials not components...Pioneer Revs.

definitly. ive owned both kinds of speakers, and imo, alpine sounds better. especially if you put an amp through them.

depends what line of alpine or pioneer. they have different levels of quality. ive been very pleased with the alpine stuff ive bought. my cousin has pioneer and its good quality stuff. ive heard good things about Polk and Infinity as well, doubt youll find those for that price range though.

Basically anything will sound clear to a point. You clip them they will distort. Higher end stuff will typically get louder with more power. All depends on your budget.

Infinity speakers are awesome. but i personally perfer alpines. the difference between the two, is that the infinity is gonna have a stronger tweeter, so it will put out more highs. and the alpines will put out more mid range. but both are very clear, clean speakers and worth every penny you pay.

I have alpines now and love them, but in the past I had pioneers and they sounded great too. the difference between the two is that the pioneers could not handle as much power so I upgraded to alpines and got a 4ch amp which really increases the clarity of the speakers. So if you are wanting a good clean sound, get a 4 channel amp to go with whatever speakers you buy.
