I have a '96 with the MACH 460 (now I have to tell you I'm completely clueless about stereos and speakers, didn't even know that was in the car until after I read some of the posts and thought "what's a MACH 460?" then I looked at my speakers and DUH!). :dunce:
The car has the stock stereo, just a cassette, no CD player. The problem is it sounds AWFUL. The stock stereo and speakers in my truck sound SO much better than this mustang. When I turn up the volume and depending on how high (or even low) the bass is the speaker in the passenger side door like rattles and sounds distorted. I have to turn it down. I've played with the balance and fade of the speakers and all speakers sound find by themselves but once you put it all together that one speaker is messed up. I like to feel my music, I want the bass. Can't have it with that speaker.:sosad: What do I do? I want to replace the stereo anyways, I want a CD player, but do I need to replace the speaker also? I assume the speaker is bad, I can't imagine it's sounded like that from day one. But why is it only bad when all of the speakers are working together? And how on earth do I get the door panel off to get at the speaker? I've spent an hour trying to figure it out, I'm not that stupid. I've taken apart the dash, stereo, doors and speakers of other vehicles but this mustang, I just can't figure out.
I'm cheap so I really don't want to pay someone else to do it for me, especially when I know I can do it myself. If someone just tells me how. i've stuck a screwdriver in the panel, found things that look like they are locking tabs of some sort but I can't get it undone!
can anyone help me?
I babble, sorry about that.
