Default c5 front component speakers

i just got my pioneer head unit. thanks c5 bears fan. im planning on putting a compontent system for the front speakers. could i delete the rear speakers, and combine (bridge the right word?) the four speaker outputs to just two. i believe the headunit output is is 50x4. could i have it 100x2? also any suggestions for the component speakers? im looking to spend around $100-200. if theres a good deal for awesome speakers, may spend a little more. im assuming that would want to use the biggest mid range driver that will fit. 6.5"? is there a better size, or is that the size. im also putting in a 12" sub. thanks

ur radio puts out like 18watts rms x 4, no you cant bridge it like that. get a 4 channel amp and power the components and sub. if you arent amping the speakers just do some 6.5 coaxials
