Default newbie speaker question

Ok i am going ot be getting all new speakers. Now i know what speakers im getting in the back (infinity 62.5I). Well im a newbie at installing and i want to do the install myself. I was thinking of getting Infinity 6000CS for the front but I was wondering how much harder is it to install Component speakers over just normal 2 ways? Cause if its to hard ill just get either 62.5I or 63.5I.

Thanks

Components complicate the installation a bit, as if you don't put the crossovers in the doors (it's recommended that you don't), you will have to run another length of speaker wire into the door.

Hmm thanks. I figured it would. Probably go ahead and get the 2ways or 3ways. Anyone have experience with teh 3 ways?

ok i have changed my mind. I have decided to go with components and get my installer to install them...

Now I have heard that the stock tweeter is around 3/4 inch big. Most aftermarket tweeters are 1 inch. I was wondering if anyone has had success installing aftermarket tweeters in stock location?

Also in your opinions. Which is better for the money?

Alpine SPR-176A $125

OR

INFINITY 6000CS $100

OR

INFINITY KAPPA 60.5cs $150



Thanks

Personaly, I like Infinity better. I have not heared the models you mentioned, but my friend has a pair of Kappa Perfect, it sounds very good.
