Which is better for a basic factory speaker replacement?

The CT Sounds BIO-6-5-COX. It comes as a pair with grilles and wiring, and its silk-dome tweeter is a straightforward drop-in upgrade.

Which one plays louder on a stock head unit?

The Massive Audio MM6H. Its 92.6 dB sensitivity means more volume from the same power, while CT Sounds does not publish sensitivity.

Do I need a subwoofer with the Massive Audio MM6H?

Yes, for full-range sound. Its response starts at 90 Hz, so deep bass is missing without a subwoofer.

Which handles more amplifier power?

The Massive Audio MM6H at 140 W RMS per speaker, versus 50 W RMS per speaker for the CT Sounds pair.

Is the CT Sounds pair worth it over the Massive Audio?

If you want a complete pair with a silk-dome tweeter and no subwoofer, yes. If you want maximum output per watt, the Massive Audio wins.

Will either fit my car's 6.5-inch openings?

Both are nominally 6.5-inch. The Massive Audio lists a 5.98 in cutout, so measure your openings and check depth before buying.
