1st setup:

Rainbow SLC 230 Front

Rainbow SL 130 Rear (May try to squeeze SL 165 in there)

Amp = ????

2nd setup:

Rainbow CS 230 Front

Rainbow CS 230 Rear (may try to squeeze CS 265 in there)

I was thinking of possibly getting a JL A4300, maybe 300/4 if I can spring for it. My budget is roughly $200-$300. less is more in my case.

No subs at this time. I'm going for sound quality, not power.

Memphis MC-3004. Can be bought for as low as $200 on ebay but usually sell for almost $300. Or MC-2004 or SoundStream VGA (van gogh) amps.

If you decide to go the JL Audio 300/4 route - PM me I have a 4 month old one in perfect working order that I will sell you.

Purchased from an authorized dealer. Would rather sell it to a CA dot com member than ebay it.

forget the rears, put all that money your going to spend on 2 sets for the front and rear and just get some realy good 2 way or 3 way front speakers with a 2 chn amp and get any cheap speakers for the rear and hook it up to your H/U.
