6X9 Car Speakers

I need recommendations for rear deck speakers. '99 Grand Prix
2 door if it makes any difference. I've always owned Infinity
Kappa's for years but the last pair I purchased were Chinese
junk. I'm glad I didn't pay much-shoulda' been my first clue.
So here is the question; which speakers are the heir apparent
to the Kappa's. I know someone must be building a similar
product. I have 150 WPC to drive them so lets hear some good
recommendations. Thanks in advance, Steve P.S. I'm not dissing
all Chinese products-I love my Little Dot.

Rear speakers in a car are the same as rear speakers at home. They should only be used to fill in the sound, and NOT to be used as your main source of sound. I would not bother spending money on the rear speakers. In fact, in my car, I disconnected them. Spend money on a good pair of splits for the front instead.

Mr_man is 100% right. 6x9's never sound as good as a quality component driver.

My car system is no slouch either, Dynaudio's in front with a Butler TDB475 amp and a Pioneer P9 head unit with outboard DAC. My home system is an order of magnitude better.
