Quick question about Bose replacement

Hi, I just got a 95 GLE and it doesnt wanna play cds.. Ive had a 90 GXE before this 95 so I know if cleaning it doesnt work(which im gonna try in the morning) then I have to trash the bose system. My question is, im no audio expert so I just want to replace the head unit and the 4 speakers. I dont think I want to put a sub in, I just want good all around sound out of the 4 speakers. I want to get this head unit:

JVC KD-S890 AM/FM/CD/MP3 PLAYER W/REMOTE

50W x 4 channels maximum power
Detachable face

Clock

Ok my question is, what kind of speakers should I be looking for that will sound good with this unit. I used to get distortion like sounds with my old sony headunit/blaupunkt speakres in my 90 GXE when I tried to turn the volume up too loud. Is there any way I can match speakers up with this unit where they wont sound so distorted the higher I try the volume? Im not looking to blast my stereo so the whole neighborhood can hear it but I would like it to just sound nice, clean, whatever if I wanted to turn it up a little. Im trying to avoid buying a sub/amp and all that other crap but if I have to I guess I will. Im on a tight budget here
