Default C6 dash speaker replace or unplug?

I've been dissappoint with the stereo quality from my 2006 3LT BOSE (non-nav) system. I've decided to change out the door speakers as a first step. Either BA's or Polks. But what about the center dash speaker? Have read posts were folks have replaced that and some where they have just unplugged it. Appreciate some opinion. If you unplug it, how? Can the wires just hang in there or do they need to be secured some how?

Unplug it, don't worry about the harness, won't bother anything. The brief time I ran it with the stock speakers and the dash unplugged (from my house to my buddy's 80 miles away) I found the system had a better stereo image without it. Go figure.
