i would return the 6x9's, imo at most get 2 way or leave stock speakers for the rear. unless your a fan of rear fill. and what's your budget for everything, subs/amps? and are you going for sq(sound quality), spl (loud with no or little sq) or sql(nice mix of both)?

eclipse is good in car audio. If you want to keep those speakers get a Jl w6 with a JL 500/1 cuz you prefer high quality stuff

they're rated per coil so.. 3000w rms would be good. But you can give it 2000w rms and they will pound a lot.
