it depends on the type of sound you like. i have heard focal, boston acoustic, diamond, and eclipse speakers in my car. i currently have the eclipse system. them and the bostons are the most reasonably priced. if you search internet eclipse can e found real reasonable. replace your tweeters also. as always you get what you pay for. the eclipse are a very nice mid upperline speakers. in my family we have another car with focal speakers, they need more power=more money, but sound great, they and the diamond i thnk have lower db levels, they also have a real crisp and the highs are real pronounced, while the low end is deep but to my taste the mid is weak in these two. the eclipse are a softer set and to my tast produce the best mid, and have a great tweeter if you get the separates, the bostons however provide a real good combination of all the low mid and high, for usually a low price. they are quality though. i have boston subs, but there are different price lines by all manufacturers. also consider silk vs metal (titanium) silk is softer titanium is sharper. u have lots to think over nicer and louder speakers require a lot more amp power which is money. make sure you listen to all the speakers first and decide on personal taste, as i said for an entry system that sounds great and doesn't cost too much i think the boston would work. i have an eclipse head unit which blends seemlessly into the console of a black integra. we have also had a nakimechi which was an amazing head unit, good luck
