Sounds like a crossover or something but ya we need pics.

Its a crossover. best bet is to take your alpines back, because im sure they are coaxials, and buy a set of 6x9 mids, and just replace the speaker, or you can bypass the crossover and disconnect the tweet.

It's probably a crossover for the tweeter.

If there are 2 wires going into the stock speaker, use those ones to tie into for the new speaker and everything should still work.

If you don't want to keep the tweeter working or anything, just a straight run from the headunit is what you need.

It sounds like you found one of the lovely Bose amplifiers.

edit: My bad, it would be Infinity.

It is not a crossover, it is a crappy amp.

I did an install on a 2000 Dodge and it ****** bad, had to run new wires everywhere.

****** design, IMO
