Hello, I could help you out with this. I would suggest some Phoenix Gold 6.5 coax and the 69.0 coax. They are both rated at 70/140w so they sound awesome. I am a dealer so i could get you these for $109 for the 6.5 and $129 for the 6x9. Kenwood and Pioneer make some good ones in that price range also. Thanks

so u dont think the infinity kappas would do well cuz i listened to them and they are pretty damn clear and they can handle a good bit

The Kappas will be fine, I run the 4x6's and the three way 6.5's in my van pushed by a usx 4065 with that same hu. Some say the highs are a bit harsh but you could adjust that with equalision. I'm happy with mine, I'm thinking of getting the 9x6's to try out . CC ------------- Cosmic Charlie

Infinity Kappas are, IMNSHO the best sounding mid-priced coaxials you can buy. They handle plenty of power, too.

It's personal preference...the Kappas sound good hell...I used to sell and install them. but the highs...A LITTLE HARSH!! Almost made my ears bleed. but equalize them and it's good. The PG coax's, i'm not too familiar with. now, if you want my opinion on the best sounding coaxs'...it would not really be a coax, but an intergrated component. meaing woofer and tweeter seperate, but have an external crossover for them. That would be the Eclipse Point source series. Just throwing one out at you.

Honestly man...they are expensive....ummm...the Eclipse 6.5" Point Source Speakers go for about $150, and the 6x9 goes for about $200...and that's online. I understand that the Kappas fit your budget better, and that the eclipses' are about $50 over your budget. What I would do, is go to a store that has both, and listen to them each individually...heck throw in the PG's to...and than make your decision. Let your ears Judge...not your wallet....Afterall you're the one that will be listening to it.
