Speaker/amp questions?

I'm replacing my stock speakers and I have a few questions..

For the front I'm replacing them with the following speakers:
DLS UP6 6.5 2-Way or MB Quart QSC 216's (any opinions on these)

On the back I couldn't find any 6x9 from those manufacturers so I'm thinking of these:
Infinity Reference Series REF9623I Three-way loudspeaker
or
Infinity Kappa Series KAPPA693.7I Three-way loudspeaker

I'm I going to need an amp with the setup above?

I hate the bumping bass sound do you guys think I should get a subwoofer? I read about the Infinity basslink -any opinions?

yes, i think to make them sound good, you will need to power them with an amp or two. i would get the Kappa's (heard they're really good). i've also heard that underpowering speakers is worse than overpowering them.

ok, yes you will need a toyota bracket for the front doors, or just make a template using the old speaker... also watch the depth, my first install was a bit to deep...

the rear, I just dropped the car off at a shop, 30mins later paid them for the work : )

you'll have to check the specs on the speakers, some require a certain amount of power as a minimum..

also a sub isn't required but it will do wonders for any kind of music you listen to...
