Well I take it your Koni's are set to the softest setting.
Edelbrock or Bilstein might suit you betta. I have no complaints w/my bilsteins, cept the price. Edel and Bils are about the same. Get the upper control arms changed also and the quad shock at the same time. should run you more than $200.00 for new uppers and the quads together.

i bought kyb replacement shocks and struts. they are pretty decent for the price. good all around ride.
What's yr tire pressure? It could be something as simple as too much air in your tires. And what tires do you use? Rubber w/stiff sidewalls can be a little rough. You have quality shocks/springs - I'd look for more simple solutions/cheap solutions to make your commute a little easier on yr back.

Your shocks/struts are the culprit in this case (not to be a dickhead or anything, but think about this - they're called SHOCK ABSORBERS for a reason 
). I agree with punestang, change your shocks/struts.
I'd go with Bilsteins - they do a really nice job of compensating for the rigidity in a stiff set of springs. There's a reason Bilsteins are standard equipment on a lot of the European "sports sedan"-type cars. But they're spendy, that's the major drawback. Cheapest I've ever seen them is at www.stangsuspension.com
good luck
