Default Quality replacement speakers

I have already replaced the door speakers with the Alpine SPS-170As when I had problems with the stockers. Now I want to do the same with the back seat and hatch speakers. I will not be adding any audio power, I just want speakers that will make the stock Monsoon system sound better (speaker replacement only). I was extreamly happy with the write up on the door speaker replacement and I am looking for something similar for the other 2 sets of speakers. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know what to tell you about the hatch speakers, but for the sail panel speakers (subs) I used what was recommended by this FAQ.

Rockford Fosgate RFP4406 6.5" Subs. Direct replacement, sound great. I just installed mine last week.
