i have no idea if they are the 'best' but they are certainly decent for what I wanted them for.
Let me try to find that page that had all the mounting plates and post a link. I made my own plates.
:edit: Well I know the plates are somewhere, I 'll have to search some more cause i thought it was at one site i usually go to but they don't have them.

those are what I have and even with 22wrms going to them they sound great
talk about underpowering those Infinity reference speakers, the 5 1/4 inch components can handle 75 watts rms, I run those at 60 rms and I have 5x7 in the back doors, which are 65 watts rms and that is what I power those at, add one infinitey reference 12 in a sealed box at about 350 rms and it sounds great, sounds quality is very good imho
I think the Infinity Reference 5x7s are a good deal, I think they run around $60 to $70 and handle about 65 watts rms

I am using two sets of Audiobahn AS68Q's in all the doors. They have removable tweeters incase you ever wanted to do something fancy with them. If not they are a straight pop in. They also have built in crossovers to protect the tweets.
I think the model number on them has now changed since it is a new year, think it ends in "V" or something, just check the website. I got mine off of Ebay for around $100. I think they sound great and I am impressed. I am powering them with an external amp though, so, that might be something to consider since they do run 50rms per channel, but IMO I don't think it would make a big deal, should still sound clean. Bass response was pretty good but improved alot when I sound deadened the doors.
Hoped This Helped some.

I know that the Pep Boys by me has adapter plates to mount 6.5" in a 6x8 spot. I think I paid about $5 fora pair. I've also seen them on E-bay. HTH.

I have four Boston S85's, got a good deal on them so that is what I bought. They sound good clarity isn't bad. I was in the same boat, wanted something halfway decent without running an amp. No complaints so far.

well id say the best 5x7s for the money are the 2005 model of the Alpine Type S for around 100 or so... you can pick them up cheap at best buy becasue they are the old models...
if you want to spend a few money buy the Alpine Type R compoent 5x7 for only 150 at best buy.. NOW THATS A DEAL 70 rms.. cant beat the price

i've got these all-around, powered only by my sony deck. i've not heard a more clear mid and high system. seriously. i'll prove how good they are if you are in the EGL region...
those clarions are basically a component set up in the 5x7 bracket right? Any one else have experience w/ these? Is there any place I can get them for under $150?
