Component Speakers

[cjpetch]

So I am going to be replacing my speakers that are in my car with nicer components and I'm stuck in a decision. I am going to be hooking them up to a 4x100 precision power art series amp. I am between these two sets:

I had infinity speakers recommended to me but I have been seeing more ds18 builds. Any guidance is appreciated.

The DS18s are not components. They don't include crossovers just a cap on the tweeters. So you will have to use active crossovers. Also if you want any midbass you will want to pass on these.

The Infinity components will sound 10 times better but not as loud as the DS18.

I do want volume but I'd rather have better sound quality. Thanks for the help.

I've always been happy with Harmon International (JBL/Infinity/Crown) products. With most of those big-box-store type brands you're usually safe provided you get a model line or two above entry level.
