mach 460?

I just got a 2003 GT and i've got a question, is anyone else a little disapointed with the mach 460 stereo? I can only put the bass about half-way up before the speakers start crackeling, and even with it at half I can't turn it up past about 3/4 or the same happens. another thing I've noticed is a clunking noise when I'm in reverse then I push in the clutch.

Every "stick" car I've ever driven makes that noise sometimes when u put it in reverse , just try to let the car sit for a second or two then put it in reverse fast this seemed to help me with the stang. The 460sound system is a p.o.s I had the car for 2days , and blew out the front 2 speakers so I now have all aftermarket speakers in the car.

I'm somewhat disappointed in the Mach 460 also.  Like yellowstang, I'll probably wind up replacing the speakers.  I like the stock head unit (although, the dsp processors are junk) and the amps seem powerful enough.  But, the rear woolfers seem to bottom out pretty easy.  All-in-all it still beats the crap outta the stock stereo in the bottom-of-the-line 95 Toyota pickup I traded in...

I also picked up a 2003 GT with the MACH 460.  I replaced the whole system right away.  I had a lot of high end stuff from my last car.  The Mach 460 system sounds like a screeching cat compared to any real decent system.

Shoulda bought the Mach 1000 option .  The sound is not as crisp as the Kenwood setup in my truck, but it sounds nice enough that I content & can continue to focus on performance mods GSXRIntensity37947.9428819444

"OFF


 Who the hell cares about stupid Stereo systems when you have a sweeter sound coming off your engine and exhaust, I have one of those Mach 460 in my '00 GT and I dont care how it sounds, hi-fi sound systems are for riceburners"Rolling

for someone so disgusted with ignorance, you're pretty hypocritical because you keep going in the archives and getting these old ass threads that most of the people who are involved dont even come here anymore.


and fyi your gay little pictures arent showing up

No matter what you drive, a good sounding stereo is as crucial as a nice sounding exhaust tone.

I think it just depends on the person.  Some of the time I like to listen to good music in my GT.  Some of the time I like to listen to the roar of my car.  It just depends on the person I think.  The 460 is ok for my puposes.


03Muskrat -> mach 460? (11/23/2003 12:14:45 PM)

Same here, the 460 is more than i expected from a stock stereo... if i blow speakers, ill get new ones...  Custom stereos fit into the rice category


redneck101 -> mach 460? (11/23/2003 6:29:42 PM)

I agree with muskrat, its way more than I expected.  If you try to listen to hardcore rap on it, then you will probably get distortion more easily than listening to some good ole country or soft rock...It freakin jams to rock!  My pipes sound better than the radio anyways.



03Muskrat -> mach 460? (11/23/2003 7:45:31 PM)

I think rap falls into rice in its own little way as well, techno too


GSXRIntensity -> mach 460? (11/24/2003 2:39:05 AM)

We're getting off topic here.  Personally, I listen to everything from Rock to Rap, & I love club music [techno is only a style of club music], but I have a GT that when completed will run 12's.  I disagree that a sound system makes a vehicle "rice."  I think that a good sound system in a ride annoys people who dislike it for the simple fact that it's not what they are into.  Put a system in a Vette, or Viper...it's still AMERICAN MUSCLE.  If you don't care for changing the stereo good.  If you want to go for it.

You are a riceburner in disguise



GSXRIntensity -> mach 460? (11/24/2003 6:47:39 PM)

Say what you will, everyone on this forum knows that I am not a die hard Mustang fan.  I am an adrenaline junky.  Well maybe you don't, so let me tell ya, before I bought my GT, I almost bought a WS.6 T/A. I was sold on the SLP Firehawk option too. The only reason I got my GT is because I was able to get an '02 Premium package special ordered car on the A Plan.  I saved $10k, & was able to keep my Gixxer.  & I am not a ricer in disquise...my crotch rocket would make anything YOU own look very very VERY slow.  I don't care where the $#%@ing vehicle was made.  I like performance.  There is a difference between a "ricer," & an IMPORT.


ALSO...If I had an opportunity to own the following IMPORTS I would GLADLY get rid of my Stang: Lamborghini Diablo, Lamborghini Murcelago, Mercedes Benz SL 500, Mercedes Benz SL 600, Toyota Supra RZ, Acura NSX, Nissan Skyline GT-R, BMW M3, BMW M5, Maclaren F1.  I mean...come on.  I am already planning on getting a new C6 Vette when it comes out, or a Beemer anyway.


As you can see, I am not hiding behind anything.  I'm openly admitting that I do NOT PLAN ON keeping my Stang, nor do I plan on getting another one.  I MAY end up w/an import!  I MAY not, but whatever it is...IT'LL HAVE A NICE SOUND SYSTEM...YOU CAN BELIEVE THAT.

You have no idea of my financial standing, or what I do for a living, so do me a favor, &  quit posting bullsh*t.  I'm not dissing you for your preference on the sound system you like, I was displaying my preference on a nice sound system over a cheap stock factory stereo.  But here you are acting like a JACK@$$, when in all honesty I probably make a HELLUVA lot more money than you, & it'll probably piss you off more, because I am so young doing it.  I may not, but I do not care one bit about your financial standing.  I know this...you're an @$$, & have YET to post ANYTHING of value to anybody on this forum.  "I can't say the same for myself though."
