Two of the TC1000 10's, SVC versions would serve you well...

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

1: Because the amp is only 2 ohm stable.

2: Parallel. 2 - 4 ohm voice coils, in parallel = 2 ohms.

With DVC versions, you can get 1, 4 or 16 ohms, none of which will give you maximum power, or is completely compatible.

What is the speaker sizes for that car, or what year is it so we can see what fits to see what you have to work with.

Well, as far as components go, I would go with Eclipse. They were recommended to me not long ago and I absolutely love them!! As far as a 6X8, I run Infinity's in the wife's truck and they do a really good job and sound great. Have heard Eclipses to and they sound awesome as well. Just my opinions.
