mate, Try putting a wire onto the metal parts that are exposed on the RCA inputs of your amp then earth it to a seperate earth. Do this with the power off and do it for both amps. Just try holding it there or tapeing it to start with. It takes about 2 minutes to do and i almost garantee that it will fix your problem.

Cheers,
Kurt.


He actually has a point... If the amp isn't grounding the signal properly, it could be sending feedback back to the headunit.. I only noticed the problem in my car after I hooked up my amp...

Kev.



As KE points out in the next post after this. Grounding an RCA cable EVER is a big bad idea.

Source unit will earth at point of least resistance. If you are having these kinda probs then there is a strong possibility of bad earths which is the WORST possible time to earth an RCA as it could very well fry ur unit.

I am not sure what you mean by the amp grounding the signal??? The circuitry for sound should NEVER be mixed with circuitry for power.

You could run all your speakers by earthing the negative lead behind the head unit and running one positive wire to the speaker, with the negative terminal of the speaker connected to your common earth (chassis) This would be an example of the dumbest noisiest system ever built.


KE - the head unit RCA earth is what i was gonna say as i was reading thru catchin up on this thread. However, phrostbyte's point about the factory power wire to the head is valid and is probably the cause of the head unit earthing through the RCA's. Fix that. You also MUST adress the alarm wiring - did you say with engine & stereo off, voltage keeps dropping? - if that is happening as you watch, then it will be a BIG cause of all this. And you MUST replace that battery as soon as you can. Your alternator is only suspect at this point in my view.

KE - check you PM's
