In terms of having perfectly matched sets of speakers, with high efficiency (and therefore max output from the internal ms8 amp) I would recommend a set of three oem mids and tweeters from for the L7 system. However I have no clue how much that would cost compared to aftermarket speakers and obviously you should not spend more money on that combo compared to what Technic suggested. Sometimes you can find these speakers used so it would be worth taking a look.

The ms8 has enough power to achieve acceptable volume levels with the oem speakers but I would be skeptical about aftermarket sets with inefficient crossovers and twice the impedance.

The Kicker midbass drivers, I am guessing, will surely need an aftermarket amp sooner or later so you can push them to their true potential.

It is a good start though to have the ms8 power everything as the sound quality will be there for you to experience, but perhaps not the volume.
