Question 2000 XK8 Alpine Package Rear Speakers

I just bought a 2000 XK8 with the Alpine stereo package and have some concerns.
There are 2 sets of "tweeters" on the door and on the dash and then the 2 subs in the back seats.
The sound I'm getting is very "tinny" and I've played with all the audio controls and the only adjustments I can make are playing with the bass the give the sounds some pop.
I feel the car would benefit from some good replacement speakers in the back, but when I went on Crutchfield the notes:
"The factory subwoofer in this location receives only bass frequencies from its amplifier. If you replace it, the aftermarket speaker will only reproduce bass."

Is this true? I need some solid midrange while retaining speakers that have some kick, or bass.

Please anyone with experience let me know what to do!
