Do you have a base, Monsoon, or aftermarket system?

Go hear some at your local car audio shops and then choose whicheverones you like best.. Try to listen as many as you can possibly can.

I have the stock stereo for the time being, will probably be getting the kenwood touchscreen head unit. I also have two MA Audio 2400w amps, one 2ch and one 4 ch. One for the dual 12" subs and the other will be for the new speakers.

I have JL Audio XR650-CSi's, I got them off ebay and they rule! I matched them with some VR650-CS and a JL 300/4 amp, the wattage is perfect and they sound awesome!
Oh yeah, make sure you have proper wattage for the speakers you choose. Too low could cause dammage to the tweeters.
