Kicker all the way. They roof ones depending on were you can get them new are from $60 to $120 for the pair. Also if you want woofers I got my kicker woofers for $100 the pair but again I get them basically at wholesale. The roof ones sound so so so much better than the ones it had in it before and they were kenwood. Kicker sounds good at loud lvls of music and don't mess up. But if you can't get it at wholesale pric then it should be around $100 per roof speakers another $100 a piece a woofer and so on and so on.

would it be wise then to replace them all at once to even everything out? because that comes out too about 600 bucks lol right in my budget , i can spare another 50 or so if it was worth it

old dash style (before 95) had the 4x6 in the dash, my bros old burban had them

if you want cheap but good speakers i recommend mb quarts speakers

good quality and sound a hell of a lot better than stock

infinity never been a bad choice (some ppl say highs are too high but that just means buy a woofer, lol) but the reference series speakers have never done me bad, and kappas are always amazing to me
