Default What speakers?

Guys, I just got my audio system installed and am looking for some specific help on speakers.
I have a Sony MEX-R1 DVD player matched to a Sony 757 10 mp3 changer. I have a Sherwood 110rms X4 amp which is bridged and running 2 Pioneer subs.
I have a Pioneer 904 running speakers in my front and rear doors and a Infinity 202 running a pair of Pioneer 309r's fitted to my tailgate. Sounds pretty good but my door speeakers, which are the original Blau speakers, are not upto scratch, and I need to change them. What are my options. I don't like cutting doors and would like to stick to stock sizes. My car is a DICOR.
Thank in advance.

Please, if you can mention your stock sizes. It'll make things more easier.

I would suggest going for 6" components for the front and 6" co-axials for the back.

Budget really isn't a problem, however specific makes and model names would help.

Components costs from 5.8k to 80k.

I would go for Hertz HSK series. Your car will be comfortable with HSK165. They cost around 16k.

Or you can try Alpine 6" Components. Type X, Type R or Type S. All are good.

!!!! LBM has said it. Just go for it.

If you want speakers for rear, then just buy JBL 637. Dont need components for the rear. And the whole setup will stay in your budget.

Yes Gunbir informed me too. I think there's a catch happening this side! I was given this price (16k) by a very well known dealer here who stocks Hertz, Alpine etc... I'll double check and confirm tomorrow.
HSK 130 was quoted 13k!!!

Guyz! am I given prices which are just konked up by the dealer??

Zak/KB, just to clear the confusion here, earlier pricing was 13800 (HSK165) and 13140 (HSK130). Prices have recently seen some revision and w.e.f. 15th July are now 14200 (HSK165) and 13500 (HSK130).

Like you suggested earlier, you are probably confused about the 16k price.
