Default speaker size

I have done some checking on the forum and have decided from what I have read that the 6 1/2" speaker is the size to go with for the doors.
What size speaker would you recommend for the dash and the back?
What about subs?
A guy has suggested useing Eclipse speakers saying they are about the best on the market for the money at this time, any input on these?
If you do not like these what would you recommend?
This will replace the factory Bose system in my 87 vert and I do not want to loose all of the space in the back to the subs so all help is appreciated as I am new to this.

Thanks
Rob

From what I have found, a lot of guys on the Forum are going with US acoustics amps, CDT speakers and Elemental Designs for the subs. I think most of it comes down to your budget. Check out some of the other posts that are similar for your model year for ideas.
