I'm Looking at front components. Which ones?

I need front and rear components for the new car and I was debating at first to go with Boston SL's, since I can't afford Rainbows right now. But then I dug up some extra cash and im now instead looking at Focal Polyglass 130V1's or MB Quart PCE213's. Which would be the better choice? Both are in the <$200 per pair range, which is great.

I'm thinking of keeping things consistent, going with one brand for both the front and rear doors. I'm leaning toward Focal, what do you guys think?

How many watts are you planning to feed each component set?

I'm thinking of powering them with an Alpine PDX 4.100 (100w x4). If 100 watts per channel is not sufficient, then I would get an Alpine PDX 4.150 (150w x4)

100 watts a piece for Boston Acoustics 6.5" FS60 would work..

Dante what would you have to say about those comps?

Or JBL is pretty well known for their SQ.. Im actually thinking about getting these comps

JBL P650C - JBL Power 6.5" 2 Way Component System

I have a pair of the Boston FS 60's in my old CRV...as well as NX67's in the back. Like I said, I was thinking about Bostons but then I figured Focals would be alot better all way round...

really? I heard that they weren't that bad. Im really considering Focal Polyglass V1's...but is it necessary to get two sets of these for both the front and rear doors?

Instead of buying 2 sets, just buy a good set for up front and a nice amp to power them..
