It REALLY depends on what music you listen to. That said, a GREAT all around product is HERTZ.

Do you want surface mount or flush mount? I can offer a few really good sugggestions either way. What's your budget? Ribbons or dynamic? Passive (cap and coil) or active (required with dedicated amplifier channel(s)) crossover? Deck power (NOT recommended) or dedicated amplifier (STRONGLY recommended)?
Need more information to really help you out. The Hertz products are decent gear, but (again... depending on the above criteria) for the same money, even POSSIBLY less, I can offer product names that would walk away from those in the SQ arena, and still play loud enough to cause permanent hearing damage...
Tweeters are not so much "what type of music do you listen to", as are subwoofers and their appropriate alignment. Placement is going to have FAR more to do with their overall sound quality and performance, than what your source material is.

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."
