Do you want midbass/midrange here or full range and how much are you willing to spend for same?

Infinity Kappa, Refs are both good choices. However, if looking for a low cost, (4-way) 6x9 set of full range, I installed a set of American Pro:

1AMP-VS1469C 4 WAY 6"X9" $49.99/pr. http://www.justcarspeakers.com

I was shocked how well these sound for the price. Nice looks, good midbass and not too bad of balance in mids/highs either. Pretty beefy too... 150 watts RMS and very good efficiency too. (+90 dB)

Like I said, were pretty inexpensive... but was pleasantly surprized at how well they fill in the rear channels. No kidding... for under $75.00 a set, I call this a real buy!

Have a look!

infinity's can be a little rich for my taste. The tweeters screem a little to much really. I didn't use to like alpine speakers at all when I first started installing and selling them. They have made the necessary changes and are a very good speaker now... I would own a set.

I dont like rear fill at all..it messes up the soundstageing in the car....if i where you Id just take the money from the rear speaker budget and put it into some really nice component sets for the front (Adire Koda's come to mind)
