The inside of the doors do get water in there. It comes from the windows and trim clips, this is why there are drain hole at the bottom of the doors.
If you're talking about between the door and door card then you'll need a new weather seal.
The speakers should be ok.

You can buy a foam from car audio direct which goes behind the speaker. It stops the speaker getting wet so protects it but still allows sound through so you don't loose any bass. Its about £4 for both sides.

You literally just place it over the speaker hole and push the speaker in to shape it then bolt the speaker down, use a knife to trim the excess off and job done.
