Monsoon or ? I have had my car for over a year now and thought the monsoon system was crap and found out this past weekend why. I installed new shocks and had to remove the rear seat side panels and much to my surprise, there are no speakers at all behind the panel! Looking for opinions on speakers to put in there. Should I find some OE monsoon GM speakers or are there better aftermarket ones available? I also considered putting 6-3/4” subwoofers in. Thoughts?

Are you sure the Monsoon system is still there? If the sail panel subs are missing, it's entirely possible that the system was modified by a previous owner and the Monsoon amp has been eliminated. If that is the case then all of the signal filtering for different speaker locations will be gone as well and installing subs in the sail panels might not work well.

If the subs you bought are not 4-ohm dual voice coil (4 terminals) then you bought the wrong ones. If you got 2-ohm single voice coil (2 terminals) then you really bought the wrong ones and should not plug them in unless you want to risk frying the amp.
