Default XB Speaker selection NEED HELP

Hey guys, I am replacing all of the stock system and I need your help in selecting what kind of speakers to cut into the rear doors. This is my settup-

500watt RMS mono amp driving a 10 JL sub

85watt RMS X 4 driving 2 INFINITY KAPPA 6.5's w/ 1" tweeters and 2 ?????????

Now, I can cut up to a 8" in the rear doors, so I'm thinking of getting a good midrange for those 2, but someone told me I should just put another pair of the same INFINITY KAPPA's as I have in front in the back.

Please help!

The best thing to do would be to put a component set back there. You don't want to put an 8" midbass back there it will be drowned out by the sub. Since you have a sub the best way to get sound into the back seats would be to put a component set back there. Just use the same set you already have. Also if you do that I would disconnect the speakers in the rear hatch ... you wont be needing thoes anymore if you put the components in the back seats!

I agree with LavaBox, stick with matching 6.5" cappa, and
either put a cap on the rear deck speakers to roll off the base
or just lose them all together.

I'm thinking about going with a similar setup to what you
are doing, just different brand names.
