focal make very very good speakers, if your prepared to pay
alpine make good amps too.
if i was to build another car stereo id definatly get focal's again, every single person who gets in my car comments on the clarity.

mmm Focals are definitely the way to go... their bottom lines shit all over Sony and pioneer etc!
All depends what you want really? What sort of music do you listen to? Do you want a system that will be big bold and loud for doof doof type music, or do you want to hear the precise moment that Mr Hendrix's pick strikes the string? It is all up to personal choice.
Go to a car stereo shop with one of YOUR favorite CD's and put it in several systems, see what you like, don't be influenced by brand or price make a list of your fav three products from each category then look at the prices and determine what you want/can afford...
There is no point paying $3000 for a set of focal utopia range splits, if you can't hear the difference between those and something 1/10th the price. (as a note, i can hear the difference, but it doesn't bother me, so i went for the cheaper focal ploykevlar splits)
Also remember that a car has the acoustic properties of a tin can - I drive a lot, so spending money on a system was not an issue for me. It bugs me that people spend $5-6000 on a car stereo the listen to for 1 hour a day, and spend all day listening to a $30 clock radio... they obviously care more about the image of having a car stereo than the enjoyment they get out of it!
