Banging my head

[yellow2valve]

Hey all. New here. I have the absolute strangest thing happening. 07 Tundra Limited. Came with factory JBL with NAV. When I bought it most speakers were blown. Knowing that system is a 2 ohm system, I took it all out. Ran ALL NEW wiring. Not utilizing ANY of the factory wiring at all. I installed a Pioneer 3500 NEX. Alpine type-r components front and rear ran off of a 4 channel amp. What I’m experiencing is intermittent interference or static through the speakers. I have changed EVERYTHING and it still comes and goes. I’ve tried different head unit. Different speakers. Different amps (3 of them) different RCAs (3 of them). Different ground locations both deck and amp. This issue won’t go away. Seems to be a lot less noticeable at high volumes but down low it sounds like crappy radio reception. Please help me understand this.

This issue won’t go away

Did you set gains with the radio volume ~75%?

intermittent interference or static- I have run into this on occasion. Everytime I have run into this, it has either been a pinched speaker wire or a frayed (Insulation rubbed off) speaker wire. So thats where I would start. Re trace, or just replace all of the speaker wire.

I second that idea of it being a shorted wire. I have seen this issue before, and that's what it was. You can troubleshoot this by turning the radio on and disconnecting the speakers, at the amp, one at a time and see if it stops.
