2ohm Speaker Replacements for 2014 Alpine System

[Mark R. Monaco]

Just got through swapping my dash speakers on my 2014 DJ (w/ 7-speaker Alpine) to the 3.5" JBL GX302, which made a huge improvement in the Highs.  However, (as to be expected) my system is currently unbalanced and does not have enough bass.  At the moment, I am going to keep the system stock, avoid adding an aftermarket amp into the mix, or a separate sub.

 

With that being said, does anyone have recommendations on a good set of 2ohm speakers for the front and rear doors?  I want to avoid going with a 4ohm set and cutting the power output in half. 

 

I was considering getting two sets of the JBL GX963 6x9" 3-way speakers since I can get a refurbished pair for about $60 on Amazon (knowing that the front doors only receive a mid-range/mid-bass signal).  However, I've read some mixed reviews from other Dodge owners with similar Alpine systems.

Mark, did you ever get any further on this project? I've been considering the JBL GX963 6x9's, and a Skar IX8 D4 8" dual voice coil 4ohm sub (due to it running off of very low RMS wattage). I read somewhere else, that the Journey door speakers with the Alpine system receive full range, but you said that they only receive mids & lows. Have you confirmed that they only receive mids & lows?
