All dependes on price. If you want cheap speakers that will sound good then get some Pioneer's. Thats what ive got in my 99 but if you want high end speakers id reccomend some Alpine's/Rockford Fosgate or Infinities. Theres alot of options out there and it all dependes on what your willing to spend/what you want out of your system.

I have 60 watt kickers front and back. And a pioneer deck. Clarity like know bodys business. I like xplods too. They put out good bass but distort easily.

Alpines work great handle 240 max and great sound quality but unless you have or plan on having a big amp I wouldn't recommend. expensive and won't work at full potential if under powered.

I just blew my 3rd alpine type s so i wouldnt recommend those. They dont have much power going to them and they crapped out.

This is what I'm doing to my XJ. I have about 4,500 zip ties and some fishing line to hold it all together.

Well I'm running a couple sets of Kenwood 1 way 5 1/4s... I'd recommend them because they were pretty cheap ($35 a set) and they sound awesome. I always have compliments from people about how clean my system sounds so they're pretty good. I listen to a lot of hip hop and the speakers are FULL of bass. They won't blow either, the peak power handling is something crazy like 175 watts. They sound great with rock too! I'm running 2 in the front door and 2 in a speaker bar I pulled from another XJ at the junk yard.

If you don't want to break the bank, but want awesome sound, Go with them!
