I am looking for a new set of speakers for my Passat 3b Sedan, but dont know which of these 2 to pick..?

got offered both set, but cant hear em before i buy em.

Set 1:

Rainbow Sax 265.20

Speaker: 165 mm

Depth: 62 mm

Impedance: 4 ohms

Slope: 2x 12 dB / Oct

Crossover frequency: 4,200 Hz

Frequency range: 50 to 21,000 Hz

Power consumption: max. 150 W / RMS 100

Sensitivity: 90 dB - 1W/1m

Set 2:

Focal PS165

2-way component speaker 165 mm

Frequency Response: 60 Hz - 20 kHz

Nominal Impedance: 4 ohms

2.83V/1m Sensitivity: 92.5 dB

Power: 60 Wrms

Maximum power: 120 W

Woofer: 165 mm glass fiber membrane

Depth: 65.5 mm

The Rainbow set have won a lot of test in Germany, but the Focal set just won the EISA Award for Best European In-Car Speaker System 2011-2012.

the price for the set are about the same, so now i really dont know which of these 2 set i should buy?

they will be mounted in the doors in the front and the rear.

The stereo that it will be played together with:

HU: Alpine CDA-9887

Sub: JBL 10" from their GT4 series (1000w) in a closed cabinet

Amplifier: DHD NTx 2662 (6 channel) is probably the first thing that will be replaced.
