How should I go about replacing the audio system on an 04 mustang?
Posted on May 26th, 2010 by admin
I have an 04 muatang with a mach system and I want better sounding audio. No, I don’t want to drive around playing bass tracks that register on a seismograph. I just want a decent sound that is clear, not raspy or "high-pass" at any volume, and has decent AND resonable bass response. Should I just get new speakers or something else?
First…I’d suggest you check out this site…and go through what fits my car:

Even if you don’t buy from them, it’ll tell you what you can do! Now that that is out of the way, I’d still suggest a total revamp of the system, A new Radio ( with Ipod control), all new Speakers, and 1 small sub…OK I know you don’t want to entertain everyone, and believe me my days for doing that are long over as well. Use a small 4 channel amp on the speakers ( like a 40 or 50watt RAMS) and a Mono channel 100 watt on a single 12 inch Sub…or go with one of the Vehicle specific sub/amp packages. It’ll sound great!!
-I suggest Kenwood speakers…since you can go with 6×8s in the front and back, and Sony Radio/AMps. If you want to keep the factory radio, then Kenwood speakers, and a line level amp/sub kit.

I use them a lot for my builds! I build for sound quality, not quantity
