Carfreak basically just posted everything I'd suggest...Image dynamics...those're my personal choices. But I'll never leave my 3 way JL components...although Infinity produces better coaxials IMHO.
But the best suggestion...act like a very rich guy and go into a car audio shop and look interested in buying. Tell the guy to set you up with a couple different brands...the ones Carfreak suggested if they have them, and listen to preferably YOUR music. Tell him to leave you the hell alone too...don't sit there and try to sell you crap. And just listen...and pick. Bring different types of the music you listen to too...ya know like a hard bass beat, high vocals, good midbass groove, etc.
