I am usually a component style guy, but for my auto had no choice but to get coaxials. I am happy I went with these JL Audios -- great mid/highs. Not heavy on bass as expected on coaxials but proven winner for clarity!

JL audio speakers will always be included on my list of speakers to consider for any future car audio system. Nice mid range, and the tweeters are impressive. I expect no low end from 5 1/4's, but these surprised me. They will not make you give up on your sub, but they do go lower than you expect. Great speakers.

Never have I heard such amazing bass response and lifelike highs from a 2-way speaker. Makes my old Alpine Type-R's sound like crap. If you want the best possible sound and can't get components these are your next best option.
