[QUOTE="Rgnbull2271, post: 8724130, member: 681636"] I have a Jeep Wrangler with Focal Components, Kenwood Dig Amp, JL Audio 10W6 with another Kenwood Amp and a Pioneer Avic. I swapped my soft top back to hardtop for the winter and 2 days later after it rained drove the jeep and there is a cracking almost clipping like sound especially when the bass hits (any volume including barely any volume at all). There was some water dripping for sound bar in roll bar before this occurred the water got to the speakers and was shorting. Today pull speakers, bone dry. Check ground on Amp, ok. Disconnected 1 speaker (at the speaker) at a time, same. The rear floor under carpet was wet (Amp mounted under seat just in front of wet carpet and its been wet before without issues). Any ideas before I tear out Amp and start reconnecting one wire at a time etc to try and troubleshoot? Checked if any wires may have been crimped when putting hard top back on and nothing close to where the roof attaches. Volume goes to normal high and low just with this crackling/clipping especially when the bass/midbass hits. Also disconnected and shut off sub during diagnosis. [/QUOTE]
