The truthful answer is; Whatever you think sounds the best and that is a personal matter.
However, some want to bypass simple facts and would rather list a load of brands. If only acoustics worked on those simple basis .. but they don't!!
====
Bass
====
What most consider 'Good Bass' is in actual fact is midbass. I wish people would place less emphasis on subwoofers, and more on really good quality speakers. They'd experience a totally different and better experience ..
But here goes.
1) 2 way, 3 way, 4 way ... at that price point, as with 'multiple way' speakers, it won't matter much. A simple 2 way speaker would be fine.
**Pioneer - I've owned a few Pioneers in my time, OK
**Alpine - Some of the best sounding gear I've owned. However I've had three Alpine amps, and many speakers, but i find them a bit thin on bass. In fact I bought .. took a chance on a pair of Alpine SPR-69 speakers last week, and that gamble has not paid off! There is little to no bass what-so-ever. Great sound, just no bass. Truth is, I get more bass from my DLS Performance 125 speaker (5.25") than i do from the Alpines.
I ended up contacting Alpine, and I'm waiting on them to send me some info (T/S parameters) beyond the basic specs.

**Rockford I've only had two experiences with Rockford. Not really interested in a third!
**Kicker (see above)
2) If you want bass, put everything into decent front speakers!
If you want bass, then i suggest properly sound deadening your doors and then 'Investing' in a pair of great speakers. This is what i did. After buying plenty of speakers $100 and below, i decided to put all my money into really good front speakers. I bought a pair of Morel Tempo 6 and I've never looked back. And the Morel's really kick.

You could look at a pair of Morel Maximo speakers

Question
=======
Why does one of the best car audio engineers, someone who had recently built for Snoop Dogg, why does he run his Hybrid Mirus directly from his Head Unit, with no amp?
PWK has done a proper door install that's why!! One commentator said; he thought PWK's speakers very amped and processed,
and,
it was about the best sound he'd heard!!

========
Under $100
========
Make no mistake the best speakers I've ever, ever owned under $100 are from DLS.
DLS are renowned for constantly winning in European SQ (Sound Quality) competitions. The 5,25" Performance speakers (which i recently gave to my girlfriend for her car) hits really hard. But they are simply the best $100 below speakers I've had, period!!

Final words
=======
Sound proof your doors
Invest in decent front speakers
All the best :)

Here are some great brands to choose from: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=searc...
Since different people prefer different things when it comes to their car audio sound system, there's really no "best". It's all about preference and personal taste. However, it does help to choose among the best rated ones rather than among a bunch of average rated ones. The speakers in the link above are some of the very best.

Came across this list when I was looking. Every one of your listed brands were on it. Helpful for those who are still looking too.

Really it's all personal preference. Alpine is a good, expensive brand. Rockford fosgate is my favorite. I wouldn't go for bass on your door speakers. I know you may not want to but for a clean set up go for mids and highs (door speakers) and a good set of sub woofers.
