[QUOTE="20 hz bass machine, post: 8688776, member: 678131"] Hate to be broad in my response but any component set that has a speaker to match your current size (6") will work. I've hooked up $8 tweeters in my friends car that were most likely getting over powered and was able to get things tuned in and sounding good. On the other hand I have a $500 set of focals in my car on a 4x100 watt amp. The speaker is only rated for 70 watts rms and the tweeter 15. I used an AMM1 from smd to make sure I wasnt clipping and that I wasnt giving them too much power. All in all, look for a component set from a reputable company and then hook it up so that both the tweeters and the speakers are on different channels. In other words dont use the crossovers that come with the set. Instead use the head unit to digitally cross everything over. I know how it feels to not know much (I'm not a genius by any means) and some of what I've said might not make any sense. If you want me to go into further detail let me know. I will help as best I can. [/QUOTE]
