[QUOTE="mrjoeyjiffy, post: 5211193, member: 586325"] So i decided today that since i was off and my big ass sub amp was annoying me underneath my back seat that i would move it to back with the subs. what a terrible mistake. i hook everything back up, and im getting this awful hiss from the front speakers, and my subs are like buzzing. even with the volume at 0, if i crank the truck this terrible alternator whine comes through the speakers. ive tried taking off all of the grounds, one from rear battery, one from mids amp, and the sub amp, and grinded down the metal to clean with no paint, and re-grounded everything, fairly well spaced apart and it doesnt help at all. the only thing i can think is that 1.) because the morons at audio addiction ran my rcas right beside my power cable 2.) my head unit might be shittily grounded or something of that sort the only problem with either of those theories is that my stuff has sounded fine until i decided to move the sub amp. anyone have any ideas to help a newb out?
