I have Infinity kappas in the faring, and Kicker CS67's in the lowers and rear pods. I'm covered on the fronts. The Pn4.1000D will be for the rear speakers only.
I've been running the Pioneer 6902's for more than two years, got them on Ultra Nutz's suggestion. I'm running the PN4 1000D clone Power Akoustic RZ4 3000D. I like them well enough that I don't feel the need to try any others. They are 4 ohm too, which you'll need of you're going to run them in parallel with another pair of speakers (that would need to be 4 ohm as well). I've gotten them wet on several occasions without a hiccup.

I have yet to get the lids but I wanted the speakers before they get hard to find. Read on a post here that they are/will be discontinued.
