Whats up all!!! I have been out of the loop for almost two years. To make a long story short, I used to work for a shop. Left and decided to take a break from the whole car audio stuff. Anyway, just wondering if you guys could update me on what the latest and great speakers are. I will be keeping my current amps, an Orion 600D and Orion 3002 (The older shiney aluminum looking ones). (600D is 600watts rms@1ohm and 3002 is 75x2watts rms@4ohms)

Now, I don't have a lot of room to begin with, so I am thinking of a single sub set up and it will be a sealed enclosure. I want to build it like a center console box kind of like this guy...

http://www.cardomain.com/ride/681683/2

except try and keep the boxes lines more inline with the center console (I will be fiberglassing). I am also thinking of aiming the sub back to keep it sort of stealthy.

So for speakers, I want to do a 5.25 component set (stock size is 5x7) and dont want to spend more than $200 for the set so throw me some suggestions. For the sub I am looking for a 10" and don't want to spend more than $200 for that one either.

On another note, I have some old stuff that I am considering still using and if not will end up selling (I know the rules and mods this is not a for sale ad). I have:

12 IDMAX V.3D2
10 Orion P10D2
(2) 12 Alpine Type R's D4
(2) 12 JL Audio W3v2's D4

I am strongly considering using the IDMAX just because I love the sub but my only worry is that it does need more air space just because it is a 12. Anyways, like I said I am open to suggestions, so start throwin' them out.

Id say get something like the RF Punch 2 or 3, for sealed. Maybe an Alpine Type R, but that costs a little more than your budget i believe.

Well I think onlinecarstereo has the type r's for 130 or something like that. RF and JL is all over around here so I want to stay with something that is a less common.
