You shouldn't really be trying to go for big sound from the rear anyway. Stick a set of 5 1/4" in the rear for rear fill only. 6 or 6.5" in the front. Run a seperate sub in the boot if needed. Use a 4 channel amp, run 2 channels bridged to the sub and the other 2 channels to the fronts, run the rears off the headunit. That sound give you great sound

Good advice.
I use a pair of splits in the front from the head unit and a 2ch bridged amp for a small sub mounted behind the rear armrest. Just leave the armrest down. It sounds superb with minimal stuffing around.
