Got some new speakers last week and threw em in a few days ago. The difference is absolutely incredible.
I previously had JBL628's in all 4 doors and replaced them with FOCAL 165 CA1 in the rears and FOCAL 165 A1 components in the front.
The difference is incredible between the two easily as drastic as stock to the JBL's. All 4 speakers are powered by Alpine MRP-F300.
Just thought Id share a few pics of the install.

it took me about 3 hours.... I kinda had to learn how to take the door panel off lol... I actually made a modification recently. I had an issue with the door lock and it needed to be replaced. While I was at the dealer they removed the speaker and due to all the rain it was covered in water... Im guessing front the window seals. anyway I uses half a baffle for each speaker to act as kind of an umbrella inside the doors. That was the best idea i could think of....
The mechanic at the dealer said that there had been an issue with 2010 -2011 mazda 3's leaking into the doors. apparently the issue has been corrected in the sky active version.
its good to know about the leaking issue.
i hope your solution works well for you and you enjoy your new system
