Lbox88 Posted March 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 Got wire run to the doors, found out my back driver door speaker adapter snapped, so had to make a new adapter. Threw the 4ch in last night in a rush, checked if I had sound real quick and I did so went to bed. Driving in this morning, and turns out the new amp is causing static on the radio. Class D for the loss on that I guess, might dick around with it later tonight and see if I have the room to move it around and see if that helps.

You haven't seen the truck since my two ghetto 12's Definitely. I'm still at this point trying to figure out a way to fix my radio reception, I moved the amp a bit but the antenna for the radio is right above the cargo area and amp so I don't know as I have many if hardly any options at this point. Only other thought is to take a dedicated ground wire from the batt up to the radio or find a grounded bolt in behind the radio itself I can make sure I have a good ground to.

Lbox88 Posted April 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 So I tore apart the dash and pulled the radio out last night. Right when I pulled the radio I noticed that the antenna looked like it backed out a little bit from its adapter, so plugged it all the way back in but you can tell it's not a tight fit. Ran a new 10ga wire to the HU frame+ground to a grounded bolt that was reading ~5 ohms so a fair ground. While I had the radio pulled out I flipped through my stations and got like 5 of the stations pretty clear, and two I could almost get. So went ahead and put everything back together, and reception isn't quite as good anymore. Didn't get much of a chance to listen this morning as I was on the phone, but it seemed a little better at least? Going to give it a few days and if it starts to go out again I'll take the adapter and antenna leads apart, clean/sand/grease them then reconnect them with some zip ties to hold them together tight and see if that fixes it. If not I'll just have too look into it either being the amp or needing a new HU. UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahmed Johnson Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 same shit happens on my radio, when I listen to the A.M stations it makes a loud whine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbox88 Posted April 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 Soooo, tore apart dash again, pulled antenna adapter apart and bent the connector out more so it's a super snug connection now, and did a comparison between amp on to amp off. My HU has a little antenna towed with up to 4 bars, and then there's this little infinity sign that shows when the Audi is coming through. No symbol for no audio, flickers if the statiom is trying to come in, on solid it I have solid audio. So yeah, amp is at the very least scrwing with a couple stations if not blocking out some all together. Will be returning, sadly.

Lbox88 Posted April 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Amp was sent out last night, Sonic is taking it back. Hooked the front doors back up to the radio, I get audio on every station above now, most are clear and only 2-3 have any static on them. Once Sonic gets it back and processes it I'll order something else. I may just end up order another Cadence ZRS C9, I'm not finding much on their site that does 100W x4 @4.
