OK! Need some help with interior audio

I'm starting to get tired of my interior setup of 1 6" 2-way eclipse, 1 stocker 6.5 and 2 pepboys 6.5 in the rear window with rigged tweeters.

SO.....I'm looking at something to spend my x-mas money on but dont know which to go with. I'm looking for mainly highs but as anyone else, would love something with GREAT highs and good mids & lows...


So, I kind of need some help deciding between a few setup-ups...WHICHEVER I choose WILL be amped FYI

Alpine Type R components

Alpine Type X components

Infinity Reference 6.5"s

Infinity Kappa 62.7's

Infinity Kappa 63.7's



Any input is HIGHLY appreciated

Get an amp and get some focal's or mb's if your budget allows. Also, a cheaper alterative listing what you want out of your speakers is some polk components.

None of the above

Focal or Boston acoustics all the way.

After having tried both Alpine Type R and infinity's they dont even come close to the clarity, separation and midrange performance of Focal, MB quart or Boston acoustics.

If you are doing this once do it right !!

Well, im going with the type x 12 for my sub but for the interiors,I might actually go with Focal. I work in install at Besy Buy and my co-worker has a set of Focal and told me they were superior to all of the above so.... I'm going to get some pricing on it and if budget permits, I guess I'll be going with those.


Anyone have a general idea of pricing on those components?

I just installed Alpine Type R 6.5" components and 6.5" two ways and it was a breeze; very little modifications.
