not too clever to be honest
i would look at something along the jbl infinity range in that price bracket

As troublestarter says. Jbl, infinity, or even fusion. Will do better quality gear for around ya money. Also try & buy online, you'll get more for your money, generally.

Although if you can't wait, your a bit stuck.

There are quite a few descent budget speakers out there. It's all about the installation to get the most from the speaker. Fixed in solidly, good termination, preferably deadened doors & preferably amped. I've heard well installed budget speakers sound better than poorly installed, more expensive ones.

Shop around there are bargains to be had.

Prob not great, i brought some budget ones a while ago, a FLI comp set. Nothing special but good for the money, a sideproject of vibe i believe

they are comps considering there are a pic of coaxial speakers which are made by the same company as hifonics, plus i did have fusions in at first but didnt like them, plus got no where to put the fusion crossover unlike them speakers which fit in the dash speaker holes

now on the look out for some decent 6x4/4x6 speakers upto the £30 range
