[QUOTE="dtbingle, post: 8176301, member: 654330"] I have the coaxial polk audio db651s and I love the sound of them. They lack a bit in the bass department, but if you're running 2x alpine type r's, you got the lows covered. I have one in each door running on 50W/piece and they get loud while still clear. I'm assuming the polk audio component set db6501 have a similar sound. Can't comment on those other speakers. Also, running coaxials in the rear are fine. People prefer components because of the separate woofer and tweeter, meaning they can place the tweeter in the best location, rather than being stuck on axis of the woofer like coaxials. For me, it's convenient running components up front because I can use the door speaker location and stock tweeter location in the dash. If I ran components in the back, I'd have to modify the interior plastic and drill a spot to mount them. If you want that extra little bit of SQ, run components in the back as well, but you'd have to custom mount the tweeters somewhere. [/QUOTE]
