Components in the $200 range and 4 channel amp

Just looking for some ideas, i wont be buying them for at least a month, have kenwood excelon in all spots now but am looking to replace the fronts with components and use the rear ones for rear fill, probably be using a hifonics 4 channel unless somone has a better recomendation, wanna stay around 200-300 for the amp, i was thinking posibly kenwood excelons or RF FNQ but havent heard either or maybe even a lower end mb quart...lets hear some opinions

yeah i've never heard of those before, the price sounds very good but are they up to par with everything else?
I dont wanna buy them and find out they sound horible ya know, im guessing any compnent set is going to sound much better the regular speakers

well i have them installed but im still running the stock non-bose h/u until i find to install my pioneer 8500mp and they sond 100x better than stock. my friend has 6.5" infinity kapps components off a pioneer h/u and hes afraid mine wil sound better than his when i install my new h/u. i def recommend them. i was skeptical at 1st, but buy them and you will be pleased. they are just a pita so install.

where did you mount the tweaters? i was thinking either lower pillar or the black part behind behind the side mirrors...im sure i'll mess around with the location before i install, now that i've heard good things i might just pick these ups befor i pick up the new subs to make sure i dont miss out on them for only 150 bucks, do you have any idea what the power ating on them are?

well my 2k2 has a tweeter location in the A pillar already so it was plug and play for me. they are 90 watts rms peak 180 with a sensitivity of 92 which is good. i would buy them now they are worth it, free shipping and fast shipping and no tax! what subs are you getting?
