I have brand new infinity 5.25'' component speakers, new in box never installed or anything. $105 Shipped. Let me know if you are interested. I also have a jbl gto504 4 channel amp which would power any of those speakers you listed great! $135 shipped for that. And it is brand new as well. I need money to finish restoring my car.

Hey there streetworkxs Can you upload some pictures of your Infinity comp speakers? I am also planning to have Infinity speakers other than Sony Xplodes (1200).
Infinity Kappa is the way to go if you want them amplified, if not, I would go with Boston Acoustic probably. My experience with Infinity is go with the lower wattage ones (100-140w) for head-unit amplification, which is usually the 5.25" or so component setups, or go with the Kappa series 6x9's and amplify them with a 4-channel 400w amplifier. (or a 2-channel if you only want the rears amplified).
As a test a week ago I borrowed a friends amplifier (800w 2-channel) and amplified my rear speakers only, and the difference it made was amazing compared to headunit amplification. The sound was much more clear and the quality went through the roof, as well as the volume.
With 4x6's in the front, unless you go with a high-quality brand, they usually don't need amplified. They reflect straight off the windshield giving a direct sound feeling, which keeps the volume true instead of having to echo around the car to your ear as the rear speakers do.
Also get the foam/fiberglass backing for the 6x9's in the rear if yours is torn, this is a make-shift soft speaker box, and enhances the sound output amazingly.
rear view cameras are a dime a dozen. Just run the video cable to the input on the unit and tap into the reverse light power cable for power. That way it will tun on the camera when you put it in reverse and not drain the battery with a constant source or using a toggle switch.
