Default What speakers will suit my setup?

i've been searchin for the past couple days and have seen many brands recommended by fellow H-T'ers...

i have two 12" MTX thunder 6000's with an Audiobahn 8002t (outputs 800W x 1 @ 2 Ohms, 400 x 1 @ 4 Ohms). i think i'm only gonna power the subs however. my headunit is an Alpine CDA-9805, 4x50watts.

as far as component speakers go, are they worth getting if you don't install tweeters as well? i will only be running door speakers in my hatch so i want them to sound good.

with a price range of $100-200 what would you recommend?

thanks again

seriously fcm - you have to have this permanently installed on the cntl-v section of your computer!!

I'd suggest you go with any entry level co-ax - infinity, polk, boston, etc. Listen to a few and buy what fits and what you like.
