08 G37s Bose audio questions and recommendations
Hello 
I'm a New owner of a 2008 G37s... Omg this car is awesome! Never thought about buying an Infiniti but fell in love when I saw it... It's an amazing car!
Anyhow the bose system (with nav) sounds great but I'm wanting a bit more so I've been searching and reading and think I understand the basics of the upgrade path... Hu is left alone... Remove speakers amps ect and install line converters/sound procesorrs, amps and speakers...
But i can't find information on how many amplifiers are in my car and how many speakers...
I think there's 3 speakers in each door, one centre of dash, 2 either side of rear seats and 2 rear window...
So 11 speakers...is that correct?
And i haven't looked at the wiring diagram... It's difficult on my phone... But how many amps are there?
I hear that the door woofers are 10'' shallow mount... Anyone know the other speakers measurements?
Thanks in advance... I have spent well over 2 dozen hours looking and reading but couldn't find this information.
Cheers

There are three speakers in each front door, a 10" shallow mount woofer, a 3" mid, and a 1" tweeter in the sail panel. In the rear there are two 3" mid/full ranges one on each side of the rear seat and two 6" X 9" woofers in the package tray below the rear glass. There is also a 3" speaker in the center/top of the dash. The amps are located in the trunk under the plastic cover in the back driver's side corner. the larger one is a multi-channel that powers the door speakers and the rear seat and center dash speakers. The smaller amp stacked on top of the multi-channel is a mono single channel amp that powers the two 6" x 9" speakers in the package tray. The multi-channel has equalization and limits the frequency response of the speakers it drives. The oem HU is decent and has 24/96 Burr-Brown dacs in it. I recently replaced the entire Bose system, keeping the oem HU, in my 08 Coupe. It's a tedious installation but the results are worth it. There's not a lot of room in the trunk so you have to get creative. I replaced all the door speakers with two-way components. I bought adapters for them from carspeakeradapters.com. I replaced the rear seat 3" speakers with a pair of 3.5" full range speakers and made adapters for them. I replaced the 10" with a 6.5" and replaced the 3" mid with a tweeter, disconnecting the oem tweeter and leaving it in place in each door. I put two 10" subs in the trunk in a supercrewsounds sealed enclosure built to fit in the trunk and disconnected the two 6"x 9" speakers in the package tray. Replaced the Bose amps with a Zapco 4-channel and a Zapco mono single channel. There's photos of it all in this forum somewhere. They're located under the title "6.5" Components for $300" in Audio/Video. Feel free to pick what's left of my brain.

That's exactly what I was looking for.... Thank you so much!
I've been researching processors... Guess I need to decide what I want to spend as there anywhere from 100 to 1000 Bucks...
I like the Base and kick the front speakers give... Little leary of going with components as I don't want to loose the base in the front... Any recommendations for speakers?
Thanks again for your input
