G37 Coupe Speaker and Amp recommendations

Hey guys i just recently got a g37 coupe and it had all the speakers removed. Im in the process of trying to find the right equipment. Went to a few different shops and they recommended 2 way components for the front and 2 coax for the rear but i need help picking the speakers and an amp to run them. Hoping to find something decent that i don't have to spend a ton of money on. Thanks!

I'm going to be honest and say I don't know much about car audio but I did some research and hopefully some of these links can help you get to where you want

Help me upgrade my 2009 infiniti g37 sound system

Infiniti G37 Audio ? Radio, Speaker, Subwoofer, Stereo

Thanks Kenny! Although I've been looking all over and have already stumbled across all those links haha theres not a lot of info on audio builds for these cars. And I bought it without speakers because it was too good of a deal, car runs great and everything checks out.
Car was actually listed on here, heres a link to the original owners post https://www.myg37.com/forums/g-s-fs/...k-12000-a.html

In the process of planning my stereo as well. I'm still undecided on most of it though.

Luckily it looks like you have(had) Bose which means adding an amp and wiring for it will be alot more simple. You can get an amp that accepts high lvl speaker inputs or tap into the rear bose amp and get RCA's from there via speaker wire->rca cable.

There are a ton of speaker companies out but I would get something around 60-100RMS and an amp doing 100rmsX4 to power both front and rear. Agreed on the front components and rear coaxial.

Some companies to check out... JBL, CDT, Eclipse, Focal, Hertz, also a ton of underground audio companies with good products.

Thanks WhiteWater, yeah but all the wiring is changed around so I have to have a shop do the install but i think the original owner tapped into the head unit and split everything into rcas. still a little confused on it lol. I'm actually considering these Precision Power 3 way components now there fairly cheap and have tons of great reviews.
Precision Power PPI P65c3 6.5" 3-Way Component Speakers w/ AMT Tweeter

What are you thinking of doing for your build?

I replaced the front door speakers and tweeters in my Bose coupe with Image Dynamics CXS64 and a Precision audio P400.4 amp to drive them. Clean sound and good price points. I would recommend this combo

Did you use a line out converter or a processor by chance?

There are a bunch of options I am figuring out. I spent way too much time researching the processors/LOC's the last few days. From what I gather the LC7i is one of the best options before going full digital. There is also the LCQ1 and DQ61 from AudioControl.

I just ordered all of my subwoofer stuff and decided to go with the basic LC2i until I figure out what my plans are for components. That DQ61 has my eye for the moment.

Not sure yet, I'm hoping they just fit in the sailpanel where the OEM Tweeter was. Do you think theyll fit?
