He has very little now, before it was BAD

will do, but me and my bro are the only ones who really knows what's up w/ car audio. I wish i had more friends that are into the stuff.

x2. My bro's retarded about it, he stripped his car for his "audio setup" and it's been sitting there for 6 months . God I love that 1600.2 so much, I wish they still sold the VGA series. I would've gone with those amps.


As for the ground loop, i've tried 3 or 4 different grounds in the car already. Even tried grounding it to my battery. Tried it with 2 different amps (my Tru 100.4, and my bro's ED nine.4). I'm pretty sure its something grounding out somewhere cuse there's alt whine sound in my fuel pump. I get a really bad buzzing noise in my speakers (mids/tweets). I've even tried using an ipod 3.5mm to RCAs to the amp and the buzzing noise is still there, so im pretty sure it's a bag ground somewhere. I'm stumpped, spent over 15 (added up) hours rechecking everthing over and over. Been driving around with my car completely stripped (cept driver's seat) to see if i could find what it is .

Also did big 3 and just put in my HO alt (fuel pump whine and speaker buzzing sounds has been there since my original alt.) I thought about trying a ground-loop isolator but seeing how even RCA's from my ipod had buzzing sounds in the speakers i really doubt it's the RCAs. Also i heard a ground loop isolator is pretty much just a band-aid like Time Alingment. So I rather solve the main problem.

Gonna try some more testing tommrow and work on my panels since i dont got school.

Have you grounded it to your amp ?
Is it always on or just when the car is running ?
Have you hooked up an external battery ? If not try that and run your amp off of it and see what happens.
Not really like time alignment, would you rather modify your door panels or just digitally delay a signal.

Grounding what to my amp? my fuel pump?

I might try a ground loop isolator i guess. would the $20 one's from BB work?

[supa_c]

H/u ground to amp - terminal.
Dalucifer has some nice david navone ones he never used, you can probably buy them off of him for cheap.
Id take those over some junk from BB

Havn't tried that one yet. I'll try it today, The buzzing noise is in the speaker even when i only turn it to ACC or when the key is in Ignition w/o car being on. I've tried isolating the amp to a 2nd battery by itself but the sound is still there.

[phyphoestilic]

Arite, the buzzing sound is still there, even when the RCA's are unplugged on the amp, so im pretty positive it isn't the HU or RCAs. Any other things i can try? Would the remote wire cause this buzzing sound too? the remote's from the H/U

[supa_c]

It could
Simple way to check it just run it off the power wire

Ya just tested that, still a slight buzzing sound, but it doesnt increase when i turn up the gain. Rewired the head unit to run off battery in the back. There's a slight buzzing sound that doesnt change even with the gains when the amp is just turned on. When the RCA's are plugged in the buzzing sound is increased and does change with the gains. So I guess there's interference in my RCAs and in the amp grounds. Im bummed out about this. Only thing thats okay so far is i finnaly figured out how to run my speaker wires thro the door gaskets (my old runs were spliced into the stock wiring under the passanger seat.

Is it in both speakers or just one ?
Have you tried hooking up a seperate speaker to the amp and seeing if it still buzzes ?

Ya, tried different speakers. Still nothing
