Wow you're quite an audio ; Take my words with a grain of salt, or take it to heart, I'm just gonna lay it out for you.

I used to audit for Alpine back when I was in college and have developed a relationship with a few employees in the company so the info I will give you may shed some light on the 'stuff' you have.

1) Sub Boxes that are 'vented' for your subs are called "Ported Boxes".
2) I've dealt with audio and Alpine for more than enough years and there's no such product of a Type R component being 4-way Component speakers are two-way or three-way. Yours, in this case, are two-way.
3) Rear 'filler' speakers are usually coaxials and its given that they would be 2-way.
4) Capacitors are NOT measured in watts. Rather they are measured by Farad.
To convert farads to watts is more than just multiplying by 1000. So I'm assuming you have a 1 farad cap. Btw, 1 farad cap is all you need for your system seeing what products you have. Anymore for you is just overkill and just plain waste.

Regardless of how much you pay, and how much 'consistency' you have with product names, it's the quality of the install that makes your system sound good/bad. I could put together an entirely SQ/SPL system for $1000 and probably sound better than this system would ever.

You have quite a lot to learn about audio.
