Just go the easy route and get the coaxial if you new to audio install or want the easy way out. Disconnect the two "tweeter" up front and everything will sound good and balanced.

I went the easy route with my first audio installation. Needless to say it was a bad idea. If you are going to by new speakers and can afford a decent set of component speakers I'd go for them over coaxial.

Is there a reason that components are better than coaxials? More sound refinement/separation or something? In my Mustang I had 4 RF aluminum 5x7 coaxials, each on a separate channel and thought it sounded nice. Maybe I'm too easy to please.

If it helps with your advice, my goal is clarity; not thumping bass or ridiculous volume.

Bad idea, with a coaxial all the sound is coming from basically under your leg, with a component your have separation and your tweeters will not be muffled being down low. Not to mention comps will give you better sound quality than a all in one coaxial.
