Hey guys I'm back. I am soon gettin a system for my 98 camry. I am gettin 2 10s, and a 1600w amp. I don't know what brands they are yet, but my question is I need 4 speakers, what brand do u recommened? My price range is under 110 for all 4. since the subs, amp and head unit will come up to 125 all together. and also is it a good idea to get a 2nd battery for the subs and put it in a box in the trunk, instead of gettin a high capacity battery under the hood and hookin it up that way? I was thinkin this would be better, one for the car and one for the system

Doing the job for $110 is kind of low when you haven't decided on certain things for the sub system.
I'd recommend a higher end lithium ion battery and put a breaker (not a fuse as you don't have to replace it after blowing it) between the car and the amp. This will prevent any surge damage. Putting a secondary battery in the back is simply intended to prevent surges but can cause damage to your interior and if too close to your amp and speakers damage to them as well.
As for the other four speakers. It really depends on where you're planning on placing them, what wattage you're looking for, and whether you want single driver or dual driver systems. Sony and Pioneer put out some good but cheap dual driver speakers and some of them you can change the angle of the tweeter so that it's more directed at you. McBride (www.loudspeakers.ca will ship across North America and owns the line) are a high quality driver that can be adapted to car audio but only come in single drivers.
If you can afford it and go with the dual driver set then I recommend clipping the line to the tweeter and wiring each speaker up to it's own cross-over. This will improve response time and clarity of the sound. www.loudspeakers.ca also sells several cross-overs for between $10 to $15 a piece.

Idk anything about systems, thats why I am asking. My car stock only has 4 speakers, one in each front door and 2 on the rear deck, and they are all 6x9s. I already have the subs, amp and head unit lined up all together thats gunna be $125. I am just not lookin to spend more than 110 on all 4 speakers. My car does not have tweeters so idk if you are sayin they come with speakers or what. I asked this on here to get an opinion b4 I go to my local audio shop to ask them what they recomended

Dual driver speakers come with a tweeter and full-range or small woofer. Single driver systems are just full-ranges.
The dual driver sets are more expensive but offer better response and, usually, sound. You can get either in a 6x9.
From what I know. I'd recommend dual drivers for the front as you want to run them a little quieter so you don't shake the door too much. (It'll effect performance.) And you can direct the tweeter upwards towards the ears.
If the rear speakers are on the deck behind the seats then you can buy larger speakers (I'd recommend full ranges if you do this) and build adapters from sheets of wood to fit them on. Or just cut the deck so that it's larger.
I honestly don't know what's available in your area so I can't recommend specific products really.

so u can better understand what the speakers look like I am posting some pics. The pics are a bit fuzzy but u can make out the speakers and how big they are. the first if the pic works u can see the speaker on the passenger door, this is not my car, but it is the same year and that is the same size speaker. I can't get a pic of the rears but they are similar to this one.

They should do fine. If you can layer a bit of rubber between the door and the speaker in the front end though. It'll help prevent the door from shaking as much.
