Choosing components, coaxil speakers, placement and brand help.

OKAY, I finally finished up my engine. Now im moving into the interior. I noticed my Boston Acoustics are blown, and i want to change the fronts anyways. Here are my questions. I only have 2 sets of speakers. I was told where the rear 6x9's are its basically useless. But I kinda want to toss some in there for more mid and treble over my 2 12 Re Sxx subs. I was looking at doing 2 sets of components but where have someone mounted the tweaters in the B pillar? Also Im bouncing between brands. I like my music and I want to hear it clear and Clean. Im leaning to the Alpine Type R's but im still unsure. I will have 1 amp for the B pillar and the Rear deck, and 1 amp for the front Solo. Any input would be greatly appreciated. My car is a dedicated Daily Driven Show car. So my Budget for 3 Sets of Speakers and 1 amp... Possibly 2 is about 1500. Obviously the less the better. If I were to do Alpine Type R's I would actually end up around 500 for everything But it I do RE XXX Im around a grand.

Check into Diamond Audio...they are extremely well built and have amazing clarity. The prices may have changed since I bought anything but they have several levels of speakers. Check em out

Good components up front with a healthy amount of power is all thats needed

Well that's what I had previous and to much bass always. I just need more real music. Hence 6 speakers.

the answer isnt more speakers

The answer is better speakers upfront and more power.

^ This.

What's louder, two people talking or one person yelling?

More power with better speakers, not more speakers with the same power.
