What to know about Bose

I have Bose, with Nav

If I JUST want to change 4-6 of the speakers (maybe not the tweeters) can I do so? On Crutchfield it shows ONLY one choice for the fronts (and they're $200) and for the rears there are 50 options.

So, the questions are: is there a direct front replacement that will work with the random ohm rating?
AND, more importantly, will new speakers allow my music to be played louder without the Bose limiter? (I assume that it's either the HU/Amp or more likely the speaker that has a resistor/transistor/Some shite I don't know, that prevents the speaker from burning out)
