If you like the way the Infinity's sound, i'd stick with those.

Kicker components sound pretty good and are decently priced (i have them on my boat). Rockford Fosgate and JL make pretty good speakers too, but I think they are overpriced. Sony speakers suck IMO, my cousin has them on his boat and they sound like ****. Alpine and Pioneer are well priced and decent speakers, but i would get something better. Again, just my opinion.

I think JL, Diamond Audio, and Alpine make the best subs. Unless you get into the really high end stuff like digital designs, but those subs are obscenely expensive.
this man is pretty spot on. id also highly recommend looking into focal or memphis audio. some of the best sounding speakers ive ever heard...

You a member at CAF?

Comps are pretty easy to put in our trucks. Already a nice spot for the tweeter. Cadence has some really nice comps that'll run nicely off your amp.

www.cadencestore.com go outlet store, components..

Those are them, but they have other comps in there as well.

I would suggest not buying Alpine, Pioneer, or Kicker. You will be selling yourself short with any of those.

Have a look at Image Dynamics. They are excellent speakers and a set of 5 1/4" can be found online for around $200. ID is in Cali, so the support is excellent.
The CDT's are also a good choice although I am not sure about their availability and support.
