bunkerking09 Posted April 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Test by getting a headphone to RCA chord and put your Ipod straight into the amp and test. If the problem goes away ground your RCAs and call it a day-Drew But that still doesn't eliminate my HU as the problem, i'm taking the RCA's and HU totally out of the equation.

brewer_brewer Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 ground the rca's i've seen this a million times. especially with pioneer's i know what you mean by the subs go crazy. whats happening is your rca's are picking up a dc signal and translatting that into the amp which goes nuts and throws out a 45 hz tone.

How are they picking up this signal? I had them run the exact same way in my old setup, no problem. Its not crossing over any power wires...

Noobtastic14 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 (edited) using the ipod INSEAD of the HU eliminates it, keeping your power/ground/remote constant. Test, and ground your RCAs -Drew ****Had the same problem recently, ran RCAs from another car to the amp and still had the problems- grounding the RCAs solved it. doooooo it Edited April 17, 2009 by Noobtastic14 Quote I am a United States Military Arts and Crafts Professional.

I'm just trying to see if it could be any other part of my system before i go and get another HU to test it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
