I'm looking for a good set of componets up front (~$250)

And a pair of speakers for the rear (~$100)

I'm planning on running the Alpine 5 Channel amp (unless someone can reccomend another one in the same price range)

I already have a 12" Alpine Type-R

 

I got boston rc620s up front and boston nx97s in the back. The rc620s retail for 300, and the nx97 retail for 200. Thats a little more than it seems you want to spend thou. For me, I like Boston, MB quartz, focal, and the jls arent that bad either. You can get them cheaper online, but might not get a warranty from them.

 

diamond audio s600s HEXs upfront and diamond audio M369I coxials in the rear... as for the amp you have choosen i dont think that will push your front stage that well being that it is only 50w x 4...

 

Shhh dammit. That's my planned setup :P gogo SE.

 

The entry level JL Audio components shocked the shit out of me when I heard them! The sounded Comperable to my top of the line JL XRs!!

 

I have and love the JBL 608GTi for the door. If you have the flags for the tweeters (like my '01 does), they are almost perfect. Retail is high $$, but street-price should be better.

I have Infinity Kappas in the rear, but you have to space them up off the shelf (and seal the gap) or they hit the trunk torsion bars.

for that price jl should be nice or some cheaper diamond audio

 

out of your range probably, but the focal utopia series is extremely good, as well as kicker revolutions series i believe are pretty good. and are less expensive

 

I have the Kicker Revolutions and they are very good. You can find them on ebay for around $200-$250, which is right in your range. They require a lot of power though, I would say at least 75 watts.
