Decent SQ Components?? I'm wondering what other options I have for some decent SQ Components... I have Memphis MC-S6's in the front and I really do love them.. I've had them in for a couple years now and that has to be the longest lasting set of speakers I've ever had in this car. I've got Alpine's in the back, but just 2 ways non-components and Not really sold on them.
I've been beating on my Memphis 6.5's for about a year now with a 50x4 amp and they take it pretty well. Should I just stay with these or look into something else? I need a set for the back, but they're pretty pricey.

those rear speaker are really just a filler speaker for the soundstage of the car. These car's are small inside and only really need a good component front and a sub. I have Boston Acoustic PRO60's and wouldnt want anything else. I wouldnt spend a whole lot of money on different rear speakers honestly, maybe something a little better than the Alpines though.
I've been running a set of Infinity reference series components in the front for about 4 years now and they take every bit of abuse I throw their way with a smile. Memphis should be pretty comparable. I'd say stick with what you have unless you just want to replace them.

Yeah, you could do that if you want. If you want a little bass augmentation from the back without going with a real subwoofer (i.e. stealthbox) then I recommend Peerless SLS on a decent aftermarket amp. Do not use them up front, though. They are only usable up to around 500Hz.

^ I'll look into those as well. I'd like some NICE bass guitar sounds out of these though. My Memphis ones work pretty good, but maybe it's the backs that's throwing me off. I need tips for my exhaust SOON and need to maybe shut this thing up a little more because the loud exhaust is ******* with the frequency range of my stereo. Sounds like I'm missing freq's from time to time prolly because fo the cancellation between the two. (Just changed the exhaust last weekend.. Stereo was tuned before this.)
And BTW... Static-X "Hypure" is an AWESOME song to tune your setup to!!
AWESOME AWESOME!! That **** kicks something FIERCE! 
Try it next time guys! Seriously!
No.. Just running all 4 speakers open 50 x 4 full channels. I'd like a better mid amp.
