[QUOTE="phant0omx, post: 3309848, member: 580004"] so here i am, in search of speakers. the only problem is i have no clue what to really purchase with the set up i want. i'm an uber n00b so bare with me if you please. some vehicle specs i suppose would be good. 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee with infinity stereo. 3.5inch dash 6x9 front doors 6.5 rear doors the dash speakers are making the farting noise and my stock cd changer is crapping out; so i thought it would be a good idea to install some new gear. plus the infinity stereo is sort of weird, i believe the amp does all the crossover stuff. the dash speakers are two way while the front doors act as i assume mid and bass because once i disconnect the dash speakers all i get from the front doors are midbass and bass or lower frequencies and such (forgive me if my terminology is off). so this is what i want to do/add/upgrade etc, pioneer premier hu: either p880prs, p790bt, or p690ub changer: depends if i use an ipod and mp3 discs, which are usually enough for me. kinda useless these days i guess. sub: i'd would rather not have a sub so i can keep the space available. i know i can get a sub and have it only take up 1ft3, but i would rather not if i can help it, that room would be used for offroad gear. speakers: this is the real question. in my situation would it be advisable to get comps? i've been wanting a nice set for a while, but have recently read that it's usually a waste if you don't go ahead and do a complete stereo with a sub. If i do get comps with coaxials in the rear would i be able to have enough bass so it doesn't sound uneven meaning too much mid and highs? should i just go with coaxials and call it a day? amount i would be willing to spend is about 250-300. i do have an old orion hcca 225 that i could use for power since i don't want to put a sub in. i hope somebody has some insight they can offer me. thanks.
