OK, first you need to remove all those coaxes. Sell them all and put that money towards your front stage.

Next I would just put all your money into a GOOD set of components for the front. Forget rear fill for now. A good set of comps will get plenty loud and your soundstage will be better with no rear fill. IF you decide you want some rear fill, a good pair of coaxes (pioneer revs would be my choice) would be more than sufficient.

You have a LOT of great options for components if you have $300 plus to spend

You only need ONE set of comps. No dash speakers, no rear deck, and you really don't need anything in the rear doors (unless you find that you prefer rear fill).

A good set of comps should be more than adequate. What does your substage consist of?
