Given you like the Type R's, youre probably gonna want to run the same in rear for tonality purposes if its within your budget.

You can try the new version of Alpine Type-Rs. The new models are called SPR-60, SPR-60C, etc. They're supposed to be better than the SPR-17S. They have new neo motor, shorting ring, and new surrounds. If you want a higher quality coaxial speaker consider Hybrid Audio Mirus or HAT Imagine. It'd be kind of a waste to use the later for rear fill though.

yeah. might with the type rs to the back if i get a nicer pair. I've heard some fusions. ik they aren't a very well know brand, but i had a fusion active wedge as my first sub and like the brand. and the make pretty good speakers. not too badly priced either. how many db difference should i be looking at if i get a different kind? and what is prbly the biggest thing i need to look at to see if the second pair will work with the type r's? (btw its a civic coupe so the back is practically in ur ear anyways lol)
