System suggestions

I have been out of the car audio for quite sometime. But I am looking to put a nice system together for my 07 F150 supercab and could use some suggestions.

I'm not looking for ground pounding bass. I had that years ago.

I am looking for a good all around system because I listen to all types of music.

I already have this as my head unit:

So should I go with components in the doors?

Also, I was looking at an under the rear seat box with at the most 2 10's.

Amps, speakers, suggestions anyone?

I had JL 8w3's in my ranger a few years ago and it was quite impressive. So I am thinking of going with JL subs again.

Thanks!

I have, 4 Alpine spr-17c 6.5 inch speakers in the doors and 2 8 inch polk momo's subs. the alpines get as loud as you want and the subs rock. they will pound with rap and sound awesome with rock and country.
hope that helps. for the other brands im not to sure of but this set up is everything i wanted in a 1000 dollar system.

Get components in the front and coaxials in the rear. For what i hear polks are really good door speakers and jl audio subs sound good, thats what im going with next.

Yeah the alpines have 65 RMS to them. I dont think they could get any louder going up to 100 RMS. I can max out my HU and still have no distortion. They are very loud and sound crystal clear.
