best loud clean sound I can get out of a 5.25 speaker?

Can anyone please help me out I am looking for some input from the people here whom I am sure are better educated in this field than I. Looking for some input on the Polk Audio MM 521 and MM 5251 speakers. Also on the ARC Audio KS series 5.25 speakers. I am looking for the best loud clean sound I can get out of a 5.25 speaker. Installing 4 in a fiberglass motorcycle fairing running a JVC head unit. Any advise or input would be greatly appreciated.

Amplifying would be the best way to get loud, clean sound. I don't know anything about those speakers, but they're both by respectable company's and probably both work very well. Look for a pair without paper cones to prevent any future warping, rotting etc. Even if you don't plan on being out in the rain, it could happen one day. I also like components over coaxs in bike installs because the voice coils are sealed off from the front. Also look into some soft speaker boxes to protect the motor structure from condensation. You need to get creative when mounting the from the back (speaker boxes that is) but some foam tape and the speaker ring over the soft box works in most cases.
