So the most I know about car audio is the alpine type R and the cruddy Boss P3000 amp I put into my car years ago. That is it.
What I want to do is move away from bass and more into very crisp, full sounding audio in my car. For the build I need two 6-1/2" and two 6-8" and maybe JUST MAYBE a small sub. Also I need an amp that will run to the four speakers and possibly the small sub if I want one. I also need a head unit with dsp, usb, aux, and possibly xm radio. I do not want a big touch screen head unit, nothing fancy just enough to deliver crisp clean power to my speakers.
The focus of the build is a crisp full audio experience. My budget is maxed at $1000, $800 would be a bit nicer ha.
Could you guys send me some links for a set up? I am new to this forum and I will rep anyone who helps! Thanks
Some links that I came up with (I have no idea so please correct me)
Alpine: PDR-F50 (amp)
SPR-60 (front) Alpine Electronics of America, Inc. are different online, cheaper)
SPR-68 (rear) Alpine Electronics of America, Inc. (Prices are different online, cheaper)
CDE-151 (head unit) Alpine Electronics of America, Inc.

Also I do not know if I need tweeters? I will have to custom drill holes in my A-Pillars for them so if they are not on my top list of priorities.
The car is a 1997 ford escort sedan, it is in great shape and I got it for free. I am completely rebuilding the motor and transmission to make it my daily driver. Weighing 2400lbs 2ltr sohc motor it will be a great daily while I work on my VR-4, which is often problematic haha so needless to say I would like to enjoy my ride to work/class.
