150 is a reasonable amount to spend on speakers so I wouldn't plump for the first set, got any car audio places near yours where you can ask their advice?

really good speakers, not the best quality sound when compared with something like DLS iridiums or the such but then the price makes up for it. DLS would set you back around £350. the orion ones will last foreever, really durable and can be thrashed for fun
