lanman31337 Posted August 6, 2009 Author Report Posted August 6, 2009 Not a myth. Ever hear of an electromagnet? That's what happens when you run power through a wire, it forms a magnetic shield around the wire. My dad has a fork truck that uses 3 12 volt batteries in parallel while just normal use, and 36 volts in series when the forktruck was lifting up and down, tilt in and out. When it hit 36 volts, the wires had a ton of amperage going to them, and became magnetic. High power systems have high amperage going through them, and EMI. Unshielded RCAs will pick it up. 2 - Audiopipe AP30001Ds 1 - Lanzar Opti Scion 600.4 4 - Lanzar Optidrive 1232D's 1 - Lanzar Opti 5.1 1 - Lanzar Opti 6.1 1 - Lanzar Opti 6C midbass 1 - Alphasonic PCT6551 1 - Lanzar VX830 1 - JBL 22 band EQ 1 - Lanzar SDBT75NU 1 - AudioControl Epic160

lanman31337 Posted August 10, 2009 Author Report Posted August 10, 2009 Absolutely. You want your power and signal away from each other. Any chance of getting this as a sticky? 2 - Audiopipe AP30001Ds 1 - Lanzar Opti Scion 600.4 4 - Lanzar Optidrive 1232D's 1 - Lanzar Opti 5.1 1 - Lanzar Opti 6.1 1 - Lanzar Opti 6C midbass 1 - Alphasonic PCT6551 1 - Lanzar VX830 1 - JBL 22 band EQ 1 - Lanzar SDBT75NU 1 - AudioControl Epic160

CASZ71 Posted August 28, 2009 Report Posted August 28, 2009 what do you mean when you say to ground the outer rcas to the body of the hu??

Torres Posted August 28, 2009 Report Posted August 28, 2009 he means the outer ring of the RCA. that acts as the negative of the RCA, and the middle prong is the positive. wrap a piece of wire nice and tight around the ring and ground it to the body of the car

1992Chevy K1500 Posted August 29, 2009 Report Posted August 29, 2009 Here's a good one. If for some really stupid reason you cannot find a way to run RCA's and power wires away from each other or they have to cross paths at some point, make sure they cross at right (90 degree) angles. It won't completely eliminate noise, but will reduce it quite a lot.

lanman31337 Posted September 4, 2009 Author Report Posted September 4, 2009 Absolutely. Running signal and power perpendicular from one another if you can't separate is key. 2 - Audiopipe AP30001Ds 1 - Lanzar Opti Scion 600.4 4 - Lanzar Optidrive 1232D's 1 - Lanzar Opti 5.1 1 - Lanzar Opti 6.1 1 - Lanzar Opti 6C midbass 1 - Alphasonic PCT6551 1 - Lanzar VX830 1 - JBL 22 band EQ 1 - Lanzar SDBT75NU 1 - AudioControl Epic160
