What are good tweeters to run off of a headunit?

I'm looking for some good tweeters that would be safe to run off of my Pioneer DEH-2400UB headunit.

This is the headunit http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/CD-Rece... I have.

Some brands I like are Rockford Fosgate, Polk, Pioneer... any reccomendations would be appreciated though. My dad has two PowerAcoustik tweeters and he loves them so I might go with that brand. Any ideas on what tweeters I should get?

Update:

I already have two polk 6-1/2's in my doors, and I just bought two Rockford Fosgate R2-1X10's subs http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_43399_Rockford... to put behind my seats (as I have a single cab truck with VERY limited space), and a Boss Armour AR1200.2 amp http://www.bossaudio.com/auto/car-amplifier-remote... that I'm going to use to power the subs. I just wanted to add even more sound quality and get some tweeters for highs.

    1 on a $100 head unit I would not even bother with RF or Polk speakers. You are best off staying within a single brand for your entire outfit.

    #2 I am not sure if you want just tweeters or if you want component speakers that consist of a "woofer" speaker as well as a "tweeter" if you want absolutely no bass in your system then tweeters would be great but generally tweeters only service the very highest tones of music.

    ^these are a example of what I am talking about where the woofer and tweeters are separate^

    but with the amount that you are spending on a head unit I am going to assume that you are not going to spend $200 on speakers and in that case you might find these a little better for what you would like
