I have the mach 460 sounds good, but i want to upgrade with out tearing everything out and spending a whole buncha money.....I was wondering if there is a diagram of how the amps run each speaker, if its possible to replace the speakers with any kind, and the wiring diagram if someone has it.
Thank you in advance

well, no. It's designed by bitches from hell. You can't just pull and plug. The tweeters/mids and the mid/woofers are getting seperate signals. You will have to rewire and probably want to just pull everything out and start from scratch. It's what I'm doing. But you said you really don't want to so basically you need to pull out the mach amps, reroute some of the exisiting wire from a new amp, and then throw in a component system. Check out Infinity, JBL, JL, Kicker and polk.

What I would do is yank out all the amps and get you a headunit and use the harness to give the headunit power but run your own speaker wires to the speaker. Get what I am saying?
Or new headunit and get a amp to power your speakers and run the speaker cable from amp to new speakers |

to upgrade the mach460, you have to tear it all out. i was told this by 3 different car audio places. adding a sub is easy, but upgradign speakers and all that is hell.
to upgrade to mach 1000, you need new headunit, the subs, the amps, basically like going from stock system to mach 460. its totally different.

you don't have to rip it all out, it's just easier than trying to reuse what's allready in place.
