Default Infinity sound help!

I have a 98 xj with factory infinity sound. I need to replace front speakers. I have searched this and it looks like i cannot just change out speakers. I do not have a problem with ditching the infinity all together. Do you have to delete factory amp? Change head unit(volume is broken anyway)? Can you buy tweeters to replace factory? Not a big audio nut and would like some knowledge on where to start. I do however want a quality sounding stereo without subs, not much room behind seats of a comanche. Thanks for your help!

have you checked out
www.crutchfield.com
yet? they have a great system that lets you see what you need. If you purchase from them they have great hook up kits that are included most of the time too. I dont see why you wouldnt be able to just replace speakers if you wanted to. Unfortunately with the tiny speakers we have, you really need more power for a nice sound system.

I have the Infinity system as well and recently posted in a thread about broken front door speakers where they show you how to repair the broken wires inside the rubber boot. I made a video of my speakers in action as well. Where did you find that it says replacement 5.25 speakers will not work just because you have the Infinity system?

here's the thread I was referring to:

Here's another Infinity sound system thread with a great speaker wiring diagram:

hope this helps,
