Speaker brands, What's Good? Options

[Bigmeanbulldog55]

Hey, I've got a buddy of mine wanting to put new speakers in his Jeep and told him I'd ask all of you guys for some help. I've done some research and I know that JL's have a good med and high but no low. Just thought that someone with first hand experence could give me some info. I'm thinking sony xplodes have a good range, that's all I know right now. If you got some free time, post your opinon. Thanks.

Do NOT get SONY. they are not good, you'll find out anythign sounds better then sony. I have between rockford components alpine, boston polk audio and pioneer

Rockford components: Sound Great, great highs an mids, but needs an amp.
Rockford 2 way: Sound very good good bass but highs sounds a lil muffled
Alpine 2 ways: Sounds very gopod, Nice bass good mids but kinda poor/muffled highs compairing them to my rockford components.

Boston: great highs and mids, but average bass
POLK Audio 2 way: sounds great, very nice bass and good high, kinda poor mids.
Pioneer 2 way : sounds very nice, but not great bass
Pioneer three way, sounds great but needs a sub , to much bass powerd from amp messes up highs an mids.

Also have two rockford he-2 subs, with rockford amp. They sound great. To much power, but hits al notes, somtimes seems to drop out when hitting to low, but same with speakers.
