Default mach 1 with mach 460 aftermarket system problem?

Hi, I have a 2003 mach 1 with a mach 460. I have an aftermarket alpine headunit (CDA-9857), Infinity Speakers All around, Left factory tweeters, Ran new speaker wire from speakers thru amp to head unit, have a alpine type r sub, and it still will not play any highs but thru tweeter. Im wondering if the wiring harness for the head unit wires tweeters thru there. Ive un hooked everything but subs and tweeters still play??? Any ideas on what I can do to have my speakers work and tweeters and sub. Thanks.
Brandon

the head unit powers the speakers, and the two amps in the back power the door woofers and rear woofers, check your connections and signals to the back 2 amps bc thats what will be sending the signal to those speakers

sounds to me like you should ditch the mach460 amps and run the speakers directly off the head unit.

I talk too much and go into too much detail. the only stock sound in my car is the high frequency driver or tweeter whatever is in the litle triangle thing next to the window on the doors. Ive removed everything else. Ive run new speaker cable to every speaker except those mentioned in the triangle housing. I have Two aftermarket amps. one 4 channel and one mono for my sub. I have a headunit as stated above. The problem is no sound is going to the front lower door speakers. just the tweeters. maybe no sounds even going to the rear. My sub works and the tweeters work Im positve.
Thanks Again.

if you do this, it is going to sound worse than the stocker, unless you replace the factory amps with aftermarket. thats the problem with the 460 is it is not very upgradable

I don't understand why you would want to ditch the Mach system in the first place. I love the sound of mine. I guess I am just too old and don't have money to burn like you kids. Never mind me, carry on.
