Boston Acoustics, Quart and Dynaudio come to mind...speaking from personal
experience with all three brands

    I know that there will be many varying opinions on this, but I'd love
some general direction since car stereo isn't something I pay particular
attention to.  I will soon be installing most the stereo system from my 80
into the 90q20v, Alpine head unit, 6 CD changer, and an ADS Powerplate 4
channel amplifier.  I had Eclipse 6 1/2" and 4" coaxial speakers in my 80,
but they were not happy and I wasn't completely pleased with them even from
the beginning.  This time I'd like to do components in the rear deck and for
now coaxial speakers up front.

    Any suggestions for high quality speakers, not outrageously expensive
speakers, but a good sound to value ratio?  Maybe $80-100 for the front and
$200-250 for the rear components.  I dislike speakers with a really harsh
high end, a nice smooth speaker will suit me well.  The amplifier is a
4x40watt, not exceedingly high power.  Though the amp was the best upgrade
to the stereo I ever made, what a difference in sound quality.

    Good ole exciting Saturday night, sigh...

Thanks!
