well werent you asking for 2 ohm speakers???
either way the 2-ohm Kappas are marked on the box as being 4-ohm amplifier safe (its got a little pic of a Headunit and underneath it it says 4-ohm and a check mark)
if the Bose system is a 2 ohm like you say (I dunno jack about the bose systems, and im prety sure my stock components had 4-ohm stamped on um in the form of 4 and the omega then id go with the Kappas since running 4 ohms load off a 2 ohm amp is safe youll be getting roughly half the already LOW power rating... and yes the model number youve got is correct, of you want a 4-ohm unit go with the 693.5s, theyre discontinued but you can still find um, thats what im running now and im very happy, the only real change between the 2 besides the impedance is the cone material, but youve got a sub to generate bass, so the softer .5s will be fine
and a W3v3 is sorta on the expensive side as far as im concerned, but a good driver none the less
the Type-X wil serve you well the REF model is the lower model next to the PRO but its still under Alpines Flagship Type-X badge, so youll still be pleased with it
oh and youre welcome

ok ok, an update... to those of u who dont know i chose 2 10in pioneers 1k watts
and an 800 watt amp. its all hooked up now. and i DO have a job to the guy who said to get one. that is part of the reason i had to get my dad to go get them. b/c i work and go to school.
i usually work about 37hrs a week plus school and stuff i thought itd save time to let him go get them. he did....
well now that thats cleared up
im paying my mom back next thursday when i get my check...
inside my car the bass sounds great but outside u cant really hear it all that well
im thinkin ima do the DIY blackhousing and try to soundproof or w/e my trunk
