Speaker Replacement

I know little about audio equipment so reading the sticky and doing a search only confused me more than I already was.

Can anyone suggest speaker replacements for the monsoon system. I want to keep the stock HU and amp. I'm just looking to replace all the speakers. Don't want to have to do too much re-wiring either.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

get the alpine sps-170A (or sps-17C2) for the fronts if you're comfortable with a soldering iron.

Yes. I replaced all the speakers in my SS with 4 ohm. Since the Monsoon is relatively low power (40W-50W rms) I'd recommend staying with an efficient speaker like the Alpine S-series (92dB/W/m typ.).
