Default Best replacements for shaker 500?

What are the best replacement speakers for the ENTIRE shaker 500 system? Including all speakers, tweeters, and the door subs...

Ive heard that the Image Dynamics XS-57s which go for $499 are the best for the 5x7 speakers.

Also, is it possible to get the best, keep the stock head unit, and just have an amp? For numerous reasons I want to keep the stock head unit.

what are your goals wants and budget

you want the best, yet you want to keep the stock headunit this alone will never happen

go with a 6.5 component up front, forget the 5x7

Why not? Cant I give the speakers enough power through an amp/capacitor? And I would say about $500 per speaker. Not speaker set.. but each speaker is my limit. So if there are 6 then 3k if there are 8 then 4k. I just hat how unnatural non-stock head units look.
