for the components, go w/ Diamond Audio Motorsport M5's in the doors, and for an amp i would recommend one of Diamonds amps (but they might be expensive) or go w/ a good 75x4 or so amp from Alpine.......if you have a pretty good deck you could also hook it up to the speakers and just see how it sounds w/o the separate amp.....jus somthin to think about......*btw* i have the Diamond Audio M5's in my doors of my truck and they have the BEST sound of any other speaker ive heard besides the Diamond Audio HEX series which my dad has (but they get pricey)........

To borrow an old automotive saying:
Sound is just a question of money - how deep/loud/clean do you want to go? You could spend anywhere from $200 to thousands on speakers or an amp and still get something "good".

Infinitys are good speakers - they are durable and sound pretty good for the cost. Find a name brand amp that puts out RMS power in the range of what the speakers can handle, or maybe a bit more to provide some extra kick to the sub.

You'll be set!

How about Tsunami? or Kove? Find a place where you can listen to their stuff.

How much money do you want to spend?
Do you want to go for super-high sound quality? If so, how much are you prepared to spend on proper amplification?
Do looks count as much as sound?
How dedicated are you?

There are hundreds of speaker brands, and thus hundreds of questions to be answered.

Sound quality-wise, you could go with a/d/s or Dynaudio, maybe Diamond Audio's Hex line, or Infinity Perfect, or Boston Acoustics Pro... Even all of those vary greatly in price.

Listen to as many as you can, ask a ton of questions, and if a dealer is a jerk, don't shop there.
