Default Stock NAK speaker replacements for 97 SC400

First of all I'm perfectly content with the 4" speaker setup and not looking to do any mods.
The problem is I'm having trouble finding front speakers that don't cost and arm and ********.
My last SC I put 4" Boston Acoustics in there and they sounded great and were reasonably priced. I can't find those anymore.
Any suggestions from the masses?

Thanks

Polk Audio or Alpine or MB Quart, if you can find them anymore.

What would be the best, or better, option in power output for drop in replacements?

After looking through some threads I changed the title of mine and have a question.

When replacing the speakers on a NAK system do you need to replace them with the same power output and ohm rating? If so, from what I've found, and it wasn't SC specific, are the stock NAK speakers 40-45 watts and 4 ohms???

Anybody familiar with these? I think this might be what I had in my 92 SC400.

I went with these. I'll advise how they sound when I get them in. I'm sure someone else will have similar questions.

I know you say you want to drop in 4" but with the adapters from http://car-speaker-adapters.com/ makes the 6.5" a direct drop in they require no modification to anything and then you have a much wider range of speaker to choose from

I'm pretty happy with the stock set up and besides, I've already bought the Polks. If I hate them then I might try that but its pretty much way down on the priorities.
