Which components for less than $200?

[TeaQue]

Hi all I'm new to this forum and have been out of car audio for quite awhile so bear with me. I'm looking for a set of components for less than $200. I've had CDT CL61a's in the past and loved them though I remember them being a little bright sounding and somewhat lacking midbass. At $129 I'm not opposed to going that route again but if there are better choices for a similiar price range I'd like to give them a try.

I currently have a Pioneer AVH-3100DVD, 2 8in JL W0's that replaced my stock subs, cheap Polk 6.5in coaxials for rear fill and I'll be using an Elemental Designs NINe.2 (for the subs) and a NINe.4 (for components.)

Everything is going in this car:

I'm not opposed to bridging the 4ch to power only the components, especially if this is what you guys reccommend.

So what should I look at? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

Also, I haven't bought my eD 4ch yet so if there is another amp I should look at for less than $250 feel free to point it out! I stumbled on a really good deal for the eD 2ch so I was just going to pick up the 4ch to have matching equipment. Someone on another forum told me to look at the Audison SRX4.

CTX65CS - Image Dynamics 6.5" Component Speaker System

CL-61A-25 PRO - CDT Audio Classic 6.5" 2-Way Component Speakers

Alpine SPX-17REF Component Speakers - Car Speakers at Onlinecarstereo.com (they were $179 for the longest time, sure you could still find them for this price on ebay)

I run the ref's so I'm biased but they rape the 200 and under comps IMO
