Does everyone get a low shhh sound out of tweeters

[Gatorman18]

I just installed my new infinity kappa 6.5 component set. I have a 4 channel infinity amp running them. I am just using the front on the amp. My head unit is a apline 9833. I have a 500/1 running two jl w3v2's. I have 4 guage wiring. I am getting this low shhhhhhhh sound out of my speakers no matter if the car is running or the car is in the on position. I unplugged the rca's from the head unit and amp and the sound is still in the tweeters. Anyone?

Well, then you know the problem is with the amp or later.

Disconnect the speaker wires from the amp and see if the problem goes away. Passive crossovers can pick up noise if located near a power source/line.

My tweets were picking up noise from the fuse box. Make sure your crosover is not near the fuse box.

well i think hes talking about white noise... every system i've heard gets SOME degree of white noise in the speakers, amplification playing a role in how much

Every system shouldn't have audible noise though //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

If you disconnect the speaker wire and the noise goes away, then the noise is from that amp. In which case I'd either advise you to turn the gain on the amp down, or to get a new amp. If he disconnects the speaker wire and the noise is still there, then it's likely from the placement of the crossover.

looks like you should bridge the amp get more power, turn the gains down and if that doesnt work, then idk man...i just dk

well i called up to infinity and they said that the noise I am getting is because of a part inside the crossover that they messed up on so they are sending me the right part inside the crossover for me to install and it will fix the problem.

Thanks for all the comments
