[QUOTE="DJ B, post: 401596, member: 553555"] I've tried everything to get rid of my ground loop. Switched out rca's for utp rca's Moved ground from rear deck to near seatbelt bolt (sanded to metal) Ran Ground from head unit to same location as amp grounded amp chasis to hu chassis nothing worked.... so my question is i bought my memphis amp used, and the rca inputs are kind of loose (they dont "catch" when they're plugged in) and i was wondering if that would cause a ground loop? i have a pioneer 6500 hu if that matters....it sounds like i can hear the cd spinnng and the lazer moving through the sub, and i get output from the sub out no matter if the channel is on or off. i NEED this project to be finished so i can move on to my next one. plz help [/QUOTE]
