You can't put anything other than Bose replacements in, as they are 2ohm units.
Try ebay. I don't think any aftermarket speakers come in 2ohm configuration other than sub woofers.

Why can't he put a 4ohm speaker in there? It will work fine just the power off the amp will be less. The real problem is if he was trying to run a 2 ohm speaker on a 4 ohm amp = smoke. I think bose are 1.5ohm anyway.

It'll work with a 4 ohm as you say, as long as you are happy with the rears running at half power. Given he's already blown up a set of rears I doubt this would be "the best possible solution". With the system struggling at the best of times with any decent amount of volume/bass, 4 ohm units would put additional stress on the other Bose components, so at best, even worse sound, at worst, blown sub and front speakers next on the agenda.
Does that answer your question?

Hey Fellas, I just blew me right rear speaker on my 2000 A4 with the Bose system. Do you guys got any replacements you would be willing to sell?

Thanks....
