Front Speaker opinions

Ok it has been almost 4 years without having any stereo in my 2004 STi and its about time I get one installed.
I want to install 6.5" in the fronts and 5.25" in the rear without the use of spacers..

I deciding on which speakers to get from the following:
CDT SLIM NEO Systems:
EF-61NEOX for the Front
EF-51NEOX for the Rear

Has anyone tried the CL-6.26 component from CDT? I was thinking these will fit in the fronts.

FOCAL Polyglass V2:
165 V Slim 6.5" Separates for the Front
130 V Slim 5.25" Separates for the Rear
or
130 CV1 5" 2-way co-axial for the Rear

Below is what I'm planning on using.
AMP: Zapco I-450 - Zapco iForce Series 4 Ch. 360 Watt Amplifier
or
AMP: Arc Audio KAR400.4

HU: JVC KD-HDR1

Please let me know if anyone had any experience with these or recommend anything else.
Much appreciated.

The CDTs are not even in the same league as the Focals. Polyglass are nice, with a fairly detailed midrange, though the tweets are a touch bright. I like Focal Access too.

I trust you've heard them? Focals are GREAT for people who prefer an aggressive speaker.

Thanks for the replys.
I think I'm going with Diamond Audio Hex 6.5" in the fronts.
D651i 5.25" in the rear. I'm not sure if these will fit in the rear or will I have to go with 4.5"?
I went to go listen to the focals and diamonds and like the sound of the diamonds a little better.

For my amp, I'm going to get the Arc Audio FD4100..
