Mach 460 speakera

so after buying the mach 1,like many people I wanted better sound.i hopped on Google to see what was out there as far as replacement speakers.found out quickly there aren't any...but many forums discussing this matter said you can't use after markets because of the ohm load.so I set to see what could be done with the stock ones....if you pull the front door and tweeter the door speaker reads out on my multi meter at 6.5 ohm....no shock..and the tweeter reads 3.5 ohm.i had an old set of kicker tweets laying around and one was broke...so I pulled the crossover and put it in line with the stock 2.5inch driver and **** if I didn't have somewhat pleasing sound coming from the little soundstream Rubicon 202amp on hi pass.....i wired it up in parallel and was expecting to see close to 5 ohm but nope...it still read 6.5 ,I'll swap this out in a few weeks..but I wanted to see what a passive crossover and a small Amp on high pass would do....and **** if I wasn't surprised...this is awesome on a cheap scale...
