maybe an obvious answer but I'd say avoid anything that's ripped. Sorry I couldn't resist.

You're probably better off asking ....what are some GOOD speakers in the this price range ????

Avoid
J&M, Hogtunes

Great Speakers
Biketronics Pro, HAT, Hertz, Focal, JL Audio, Arc Audio Moto.

Good speakers
Biketronics 7.1, Infinity Kappas, Kicker KSC67

Whatever you speakers you get, you need an amp. Otherwise don't bother upgrading.
