I am looking for replacement speakers for my Stang. I have the MACH 460, and am in no way wanting to bypass anything. I need some great speakers to replacement the stock ones that are "loosing" their hit.
Any help would be appreciated.

The problem will be with the woofers then. Ford uses an 8 ohm woofer and most(97%) are a 4 ohm full range driver and will not work on the factory amps.

I have a buddy that just pulled his mach system and would sell you the drivers from it if you do not want ot bypass the amp.

What are the sizings for all the speakers (tweeters, woofers, etc.) for the MACh 460? Are they all 8 ohms?

I really want speakers where I dont need to modify anything and just drop in and enjoy.

the front speakers are a normal audio impedence of 4 ohms, bad news is that they use a very unusual size of 2.5".

The woofers are a standard 5 x7 speaker, and an unusual 8 ohm impedence.

You can find a tweeter that is smaller and then rig the mounting, but the 8 ohm impedence in the woofer is really difficult. The closest thing I have found is a 4 ohm dual voice coil speaker but it was a cheap quality.

If you want something to drop it with no problems you will need to buy oem equipment. I have a buddy that just pulled his and it was working if you want.

No, I do want to upgrade the speakers. I was wondering if they make speakers that will fit and are of better quility then the OEM. Sorry if I was confusing anybody.
