Smile Help picking out Door Six point fives :)

Just bought a Clarion VX400 source unit (getting error 4 message on OEM CD player) and i think my driver side door speaker is blown so im gonna replace both side 6.5 speakers. Just need help selecting the speakers... The OEM speakers are Pioneer 2-way? ..if so, i want to replace them with the same type only Audiobahn or some other brand of speaker. I havent been into car audio for about 8 years so ive completely forgotten most of the lingo. So if anyone out there has a dream set of speakers and want to fill me in on why they rock, you should post some links now :D im lookin to spend 40 to 90 dollars

audiobahn went under 3 years ago....

dub magazine bought up most of whats left of the company, now they ***** themselves to inexperienced audio enthusiasts


buttttttt.....i have 6.5" Alpine Type S components. you can get a set for around $80 and the best part is the built in crossover

however....i have also four sets of 4" Rockford Fosgate Power T1 2ways....and they sound better than my component set


all of my speakers are unamplified

ahhh, no bass at all... i guess i have a reason to get a sub installed now

Ive had some Audiobahn Subs ive been holding onto for about 5 years now. Two Alum12N (brand new in box) and one Alum12Q (from my original install) I have a 2000 watt lanzar amp and a 15 farad cap.
The only question is how many of you dont have a spare tire under the trunk area? The amp is huge... like 2 feet long i think
