Alright, so I'm almost done building my system. I'm running Infinity Kappa 6x8's in the front and rear doors powered by a Phoenix Gold RYVAL v754 amp at 60hz high pass. 1 JBL W12GTI MKII sub at 3 ohm in a slot ported box to specs powered by a Rockford Fosgate T1500-BDCP amp running at about 800-1000 watts rms. HU is a Pioneer DEH 7300BT. My question is I want to run something in the rear deck of my car (06 Focus) 6x9's or 8" mid bass sub's and some tweeters for the front. What would be some good tweeters and rear deck speakers for my car. Also, what would be a good high quality 4 channel amp for these 4 speakers? My budget for the mid's, tweets and amp is about $350-$500 if possible. Thank you for your input and expert advice.

Since you are already using infinity and mixing speaker brands may not be a good idea:

For standalone midbass drivers you could consider these:

For an amp you can use this:

If you use midbass drivers you will need to bandpass them, the best and simplest method to do that is with an active crossover. But sometimes it may be done mixing existing filters.

better bet is to ditch those kappas entirely, get a 5.25" or 6.5" set of separates for the front stage and put them in the doors or kick panels, then for rears, just use a pair of 8" mid-bass drivers, and run them in mono or L-R, with a bandpass filter set for 250-2.5KHz.
Cross your subs over at 50Hz, 18dB slope. 12dB slope on everything else. Fronts can be set for high pass at around 125-250Hz.

also: 4 channel amps: sundown audio or audioque would be great.
