I replaced the dash and sound bar speakers with Sony 4-ways and they sound great.

I replaced mine with these Kickers:
Amazon.com: JEEP WRANGLER JK KICKER SPEAKER UPGRADE: Automotive

They are direct plug and play. I also replaced the lower dash speakers with them. I put some polyfill in the speaker pods as well. Sounds great and can't beat the price!

I use these in the sound bar too. Big improvement over the OE speakers.
