In a corsa?
If so, you only need some decent speakers in the front doors and a sub in the boot for a good system.
Majority of 6x9's are rubbish and hard to set up properly

never understood why people have one set of speakers
get 2 sets of components or coxial speakers 1 for the front 1 for the back
then a decent sub and amp
make sure you amp your speakers too

Cos you don't need 2 sets in a small car.
Also a new rear shelf from a scrappy/ebay/here will be less than some speakers 
I have some Rainbow comps with kicker amp, 12" JBL sub with rockford amp and its all thats needed, it goes loud enough to hurt your ears (and some more too!) so don't need anything more!

i must say im very impressed with the alpine amp, and the infinity speakers seem great.
and i can see what your saying about a new parcel shelf but i like the sound from rear too, altho i do have the front on higher, i might have a look at vibe stuff, but im mainly looking for clarity as i have hpf on my hu.......
cheers for the replies so far!
