Default C5 component help

Need help choosing a set of somponents. There are so many out there to choose from. I have a budget of $300 to spend on front and rear "fillers". I also want them to be adjustable. I narrowed it down to these:

Diamond audio d661
Focal 165v1 polyglass
MB quart rvf-216
Infinity Perfect
JL VR 650

What I have so far:

Kenwood dvd 717
JL audio 500/5 amp
JL 10w3d2

Any sugestions for rear "fill"? BTW I listen to just about anything from pop, old school to rock but SQ is very important to me.

Polk makes awesome coaxials and components, even the entry line DBs sound great a few forum members can prly attest who have heard them in my car otherwise the MOMOs are killer

i'd blow your wad on the front speakers and leave the rear speakers stock (and disconnect them ) you'll get a lot more from your money that way.
