I replaced the paper rear speakes with top-of-the-line pioneer speakers for about $200 -- felt no difference. Then I added $500 amplifier -- felt no difference. Then I added $150 subwoofer -- now HUGE difference.
Once the subwoofer went in, rear speakers went out. With the subwoofer in, rear speakers were nothing more than interference; they just made the sound murky. I keep them either off completely, or sliced from 60 to 150 Hz to provide a "fill". Works nicely for low voice and some guitars.
Bottom line: don't waste money on the rear speakers -- buy yourself a subwoofer + amp instead.
The only compication is that you will have to pull the power line from the battery all the way to the trunk. But the improvement in sound is worth it!
