Speaker advice needed...

[adam.garside at uk.ibm.com (Adam J Garside)]

Mk2 Scirocco's have 4x6 speakers all round (they are interchangeable) JBL
do replacements, I think Infinity do to.

I have adapted mine to fit 5" speakers and allow myself much better choice
of speaker.
I chose Phoenix Golds after listening to a few choices, they sounded best
on the types of music I listen to.

OK, so I'm looking to replace all my speakers.  The rear ones sound ok, but
when turned up with bass... horrible.  And the front ones seem to give no
bass what-so-ever.  I know the P.O. put in some 4x6 Pyle Drivers in the
back, but am not sure if he changed the front ones.  I asked last week on
teh list and was told that the stock front speakers are 2x3, euro/metric
size(?).  I've been looking online and can't find anything in a 2x3 (euro,
metric, or otherwise).  Where can I find them that size or what can I fit
in the door panels without changing the plastic grill that goes over them?
Also, what's the consensus on brands?  It's been a long time since I've
looked into these things and would like some input.  Heck, I just removed
the stock stereo last summer!  As far as the back, I'd like to keep the 4x6
size as I don't want to cut or change anything.  Also, I've acquired an amp
and a couple of 12" Xplods(?) [all free!], so bass isn't really that much
of an issue, speaker wise.  And,
 to give you an idea of what will be played through them (which may affect
the choice of speakers):  Rock (old and new), Techno, and talk radio (well,
Don and Mike).  I'm not really into the hip-hop/rap scene, so although I
want my bass to sound decent, I have no desire to let the whole
neighborhood listen in.

Thanks,
Mike
