That Alpine amp is from the days when Alpine was still made in Japan!

Definitely a classic! lol.

I'm happy with my Alpine Type-S speakers so far... I've got them front and rear in my truck...

The best thing to do for speakers, to get a good deal, is browse your car audio shops when the have their clearance sale when the new models of speakers come in... You can get last years models for dirt cheap...

I wouldn't buy a new receiver with HD radio if you're not gonna use it. It could very well be more expensive than other just as good receivers because it has that feature and others don't.

As for speakers, I suggest heading to ebay, find something in your budget, and buy a proper amp for them at the same time. Just about any car speaker that's properly amped is gonna sound all right at the very least, especially to people who aren't true audiophiles, aren't car audio pros, or don't consider this stuff a hobby.

look into infinity 6012I and 9612i speakers. they are last years models, so they will be cheaper. actually, put both those model numbers into froogle.com and search. will give you the lowest prices around.

I love infinity's tweeters, they sound great for the price....

hard to comment on the JL's since pretty much all the vocals i hear come from the dash.
