Rear speaker recommendations?

I'm looking into replacing my rear 6x9 factory speakers. Any suggestions? I don't want to spend more than $150 for a pair. I have a JVC deck and Polk front components.

Anything with a mounting depth under 2.5" My audiobahns are sweet, 3 ways so I have highs in the back, but had to custom fab spacers, cuz as you see the magnets are HUGE and sat on the trunk springs. I'd go with Polk (also big magnets, or maybe infinity)

They really are massive, 3.5" mounting depth, took me 4 different spacers before I got ones big enough, you should check out my thread since i don't wanna whore up his thread

The ugly system in the trunk is all gone that was just a temp setup, and new stuff is taking it's place in the fiberglass which will be starting in a couple weeks now that it's warmer out

Front components also

Thanks! I'm considering adding an amp. Not something crazy, but I know nothing about them. Would they really make a difference in how my speakers sound? And do I get a 2-channel or 4? I don't plan on adding a sub.

Depends on what channels you want powered, you at least want your rear 6x9's to be powered by an amp, powering them off the hu just draws too much power, you could get away with a 2 channel, I'm doing 4 to do my front speakers too. And they will def make a difference in the sound of your system
