What would be "good" is all in a matter of your opinion. Whats your budget? what do have installed currently? and what are u looking for, SPL or SQ?

it would be better if you spend some time searching these things so you get acclimated to the site and to the terms that are commonly used. we could spout off any old thing and if you don't know what we're talking about you could end up with stuff you don't want. so do some research on here for a while. look around for a bit. then come back with more specifics on what you're looking for

its cool man, lol. We were all newbs at one time. SQ is sound quality, they can hit a range of tones from high to low notes and be very musical. SPL is sound pressure level, speakers can get really loud for certain frequencies but are not very good for anything else. Its usually good to have something inbetween.

FYI: ditch the xplod and pioneer and get something worth wile, someone here on the forum should have something good for sale you could probably get. If it was me, i would try and save up at leat up to 600 and get some sundown audio, incriminator audio, RD Audio or something like that.
