Exclamation Need advice on which speakers!

Hey guys, I'm thinking of trashing the rear speakers and putting in 2 10" subs in the rear and excellent speakers in the front. Can anyone recommand me what would be a good choice if I"m having only the front speakers installed with no rears?
Thanks!

How much do you want to spend?

If money is no object, put a set of Image Dynamic horns and 2 Ohm 6.5 drivers in the front, and a pair of Valadine Servo drives in the rear.

well I don't want the rear speakers, since I'm putting in subs, I'm only in need of advice for the 2 front speakers. 6.5 ? wouldn't that needs some custom mounting to be done?

How much do you want to spend is the biggest question as it relates to your whole system.

Take a look at the Focal Polyglass line of component sets.
Also the CDT line of components that fits your budget.

For both you will need another 100w x 2 (at least) amp for

BUY WITH WARRANTY!

Personally I went with some jl 5 1/4" xr series components up front. I'm sure with a spacer and some dremeling you could fit 6.5" For between 200 and 300 those are my choice.
