New speaker upgrade help

I am looking to upgrade the factory speakers in my 2007 EX coupe (it came with 300 watt factory system)

Any recommendatons on a manufactuer ? I want a direct swap - fronts at the floor and the tweeters in the dash. Maybe the 2 rear deck-
I will keep the subwoofer for now.

Has anybody done this yet ? Not looking for major upgrade- just to replace my 4 yr old factory speakers this spring.

Thanks

Use their fitment chart to find a pair that will fit.

I've got Rock Fosgate in the back and Sony explode in the front. It sounds ok but, I'm no audiophile

Thanks. I checked their site ,and bought from them before.
All seem to require trimming of the factory grille to fit and adapter brackets, so that seems inevitable.

I do not think a tweeter swap is simple. I will see what I can do with what I can get.

Re: New speaker upgrade help

In my 2006 I installed all kenwoods,I assume the install isn't too different.
I had no issues replacing the front door speakers,but on the rear deck(Don't laugh,it sounds GREAT)I put 6x9's in.They sit above the rear deck,but honestly it looks a LOT less tacky than you'd imagine,I'll take a pic later.
