Default replacing speakers

i am going to replace all of my speakers in my car soon. only a couple of the stock speakers work and i have two pioneer 12" subs hooked up to their own amp in the hatch. would replacing the stock amp which im pretty sure is blown anyway increase the quality of sound. what should i replace it with? thanks

Whats is your total budget to do 4 speakers and a 4 channel amp? Is your headunit stock, or is it an aftermarket?

for a nice sounding, cheaper settup, i always go with the alpine type s speakers and the mrpf300 amp.

alpine sps600. 69 per set(2 sets so 138)
alpine mrpf300. 157
wiring kit. 50ish

They sound good and dont cost a ton. Are there better performing speakers out there? of course, but for the price with the reliablity? no. the amp is extremely reliable. same setup i have in my z. i have the alpine speakers(components in the front though), mrpf300, mrpm500, and an alpine type r 10 in a stealth box
