I would really recommend a 4 - channel since it would probably be cheaper. Just use a crossover/equalizer, if your h/u doesn't provide multiple rca outputs, to send the high signal to the first 2 channels and the mids to the second 2 channels. That's what I would do. I've seen it done both ways, but you have to run more wire with amps, and another fuse, and of course more space. Let us know what you decide.

Choose your component speakers based on their fit to your vehicle, your budget and how they sound to your ears. Consider lines like Focal, Macrom, Morel, Eclipse, Boston and others. Buy the speakers that your ears like as you hear different than anyone else does.
