NAPA is fantastically convenient to me , as in walkable , so I want to keep that store open

If you'd like to extend the life of your replacement
OEM 6" drivers in all of the corners, start thinking
about adding a subwoofer to carry the load. If you
really turn it up, some bass-blockers for the mids
and highs may help, too.
If you're really picky about your sound, but would
like to keep a stock HU in the dash, think about an
SC-901 upgrade with one of the 4 channel amps.
This Jim Rothe link is an oldie, based on a sedan,
but there's a lot of interesting legacy x70 upgrade
information. It's primarily about a killer speaker option.
Good luck finding a set of Dynaudios for a V70, though...
