    Recommend me some decent mid-priced 6.5" components

    I was thinking Focal, as they are supposed to be pretty epic

    Any other suggestions?

    I was planning on dynamatting them properly, amplifying them and running fresh OFC cable to the amp

    Veah Vibe are very nice, and that would match my amp/sub Infinity are good too.

    However i want the best I can get for £100-£150 which I suspect won't be either of them!

    Yeah exactly

    I don't know if I'd ever have it THAT loud, lol... perhaps those are more suited to a show car where they need something to add some music to a wall of subs in the boot?

    I'm only going to be running a couple of 10's or maybe a 12" in the back, albeit decent kit installed properly

    well try the vibe range you can pick a decent set up for as little as £60 and there good if your not going to be thrashing the hell out of them but if i had 150 to spend would def go for the gti's

    Nakamichi speakers are really good quality. I've got some in my Corsa door panels. They are a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. Nakamichi SP-C652 6.5 Inch Car Speakers

    Only just realised you wanted components Ermmm Rainbow are decent - http://audiovisualworld.co.uk/shoppi...nent-Speakers- Pricey but decent quality
