Default Round Speaker Options

Anyone have recommendations for replacing the round speakers in the lower front door panels? Are there lots of choices? Few? Other speakers seem fine.

Mine was the stock speaker system. No Alpine label on the screen so I am assuming this was not the premium set up.

My bass is really off and I'm thinking it's time.

Thanks.

I just repair the Phillips (or Harmon Kardon or Alpine) if the voice coil is OK.
Speaker repair kits are available online for cheap.

I am not looking for concert hall sound anyway.

By far and away the best 6.5" you can throw in that door is the SI TM65MKIII. $250 a pair. I have them in several vehicles and have owned $20,000 components before. I have them in my XJR and they are spectacular. Dont even need a sub but it helps. Look at my thread on this page and you can see them in detail.
