Need help on speaker sizes... Please?

I have the Non-Bose system and I am buying new speaker's.
I assume the fronts are 6.5' components but what size are the rears? 5 1/4 or 4x6? Thanks.

I think I am going to go with MB Quart Q series. They supposedly rock!

I gotta find out what size the center channel is as well. I think there is a speaker under there as well presumably a tweeter. I still have my amps and box with 2 JL 8" subs.

I have a few amp/sub setups here in the garage too. Where do you plan to put them?

I am thinking a 3" false floor board in the front.

And surely your 8s have more depth than 3"... I have a JL 12W7 that's like 13 inches deep. Granted, these will be much less... but 3"?

Sorry, In the trunk yes. I mean a 3" false floorboard to hide the amps. My box is much larger than that.

Please let us know your findings. I also have the non bose system. It is unsatisfactory for me but listened to the Bose unit last week and it was less satisfactory than the stock one. I want to improve the system without too much modifications.

Yeah. Please do. I have always had systems, and the 911 is my daily driver. I travel a good bit, so I need luggage room. And I also golf, so I need as much room as possible for those in the back. I actually considered the *gasp* Bazooka tube solution along with some incredible mids and highs, like the Quarts you pointed out there.
