Hi Bob,

There are way too many good speakers out there for me to say to buy one over another. Your best bet is to get out and listen to as many as you can before you decide. Be patient. A few extra days of research now may add up you years of happiness later.
As for subs, IMO, the best bang for your buck subs are from Parts Express. The kits are cake to put together. They are mostly done when you get them. A wire here, a screw there and bang, they're done. These two are about in your range.
