scobar Posted November 10, 2013 Report Posted November 10, 2013 I have a polk c400.4 I bought used. Seems to work, however there is a very audible pop/click when turning my deck on or off. My old amp did not do this. I've re-grounded the amp twice. Truck has big 3 done with 1/0, D3400 bat, mechman alt, etc. Just puzzled...google seems to suggest potential filter caps. Never been inside of an amp before but handy with an iron. Thoughts?
03 Xtreme Fosgate Posted November 10, 2013 Report Posted November 10, 2013 This is the reason I don't like buying used equipment. Maybe get one of those remote turn on modules to help with turn on pop?

hazestorm23 Posted November 10, 2013 Report Posted November 10, 2013 Is the notice in the speakers or amp itself? Try removing rcas then turning it on
rockFord_Expedition Posted November 10, 2013 Report Posted November 10, 2013 See if this fixes it and report back: Disconnect the remote turn on lead and make sure it doesn't touch anything and leave everything else hooked up. Do this with the system off and no key in the ignition. Turn on your car/system and make sure the volume is all the way down. Connect the remote wire after your system has been on for a few seconds.

jmfrb1 Posted November 11, 2013 Report Posted November 11, 2013 Same thing happened in my girls ride. I hooked up an on/off switch to the remote wire and would turn it on a few seconds after the radio came on and turn it off before turning the radio/vehicle off. Worked like a charm man
scobar Posted May 4, 2014 Author Report Posted May 4, 2014 Ok finally got my truck back. With everything off I can jump the remote and it pops on and off. Urg!
