ok well i dont wanna spend a whole lot
ive already decided to get 2 RE 8" subs (this is in an mr2, i already have 2 phoenix gold RD12's but ya they are too big for such a small car)
I already have an amp (profile ap1200) so i CAN run the subs off that
i also have a HU, a panasonic c7301u
What i dunno what to do is what speakers to get? i kinda wanna spend less than 200
i need 2 6.5 inch speakers, and then i have room for either 3/4 or 1 inch tweeters
how are Infinity Reference 6010cs

about 120 shipped
what other cheaper components are there? and whats a good amp? should i just go with a multichannel amp and run the subs and the speakers off it?

id run them off the HU most likely, or i could buy a small watt amp (and run the ap1200 and the small amp)
WHAT SHOULD I DO!! i dont wanna spend TOOOO much cuz ya i gotta pay 1700 (rough estimate) to fix some rust spots
btw i may not be able to fit 1 inch tweeters, so i may need 3/4 inch ones

If you have 8" subs in the doors, you can cross them over much higher than normal. That means you can use 5 1/4" or 4" mids. Infinity speakers are not that great.

well in order to fit 8 inch subs on the doors id need to make a giant hole in my door, and remove the window regulator to fit it
im putting the subs behind the chairs

ohhh .. ok
well you can still cross them over a good bit higher than a 12" or 15", they are designed to play to a higher frequency range.
