I think you are in for a surprise. A BIG $UPRI$E. The HK Logic 7 system uses fibre optics for signal transfer and will most likely require the AUDIO50 or Multimedia System. It also has surround sound which includes a center channel speaker and a crappy, small subwoofer mounted under the rear deck. If you currently have the Audio20 base audio- install an aftermarket amp or amp/processor and upgrade the existing speakers. If you still want additional bass- add a powered subwoofer like the Infinity Basslink.

Depends on which JL. HD or XD series- JL hands down. The HK OEM amp would never compare to the JL. The MS-8 is great (big improvement over the Cleansweep), but results would depend on the how many channels your amp has. If you are seriously concerned about sound quality- you don't want the center speaker unless you watch movies in the car. You should be able to achieve the ultimate soundstage and imaging with a great pair of components and a sub.

The tweeters from the Kappa 60.9 can fit, but you have to enlarge the hole with a Dremel tool, takes a few minutes to enlarge each side with a sanding drum.
Does the Clean Sweep provide separate outputs for a subwoofer and the fifth channel as part of its DSP? If so adding a self-powered sub would be the next step, also wiring the fifth channel to the REAR would really expand the sound, this of course would need its own small (maybe 20W) amp and a speaker in the rear deck.
As long as one is wiring the subwoofer feed to the trunk, it takes almost no time to locate a fifth channel speaker and amp under the rear deck.
