[QUOTE="ephyouckay, post: 2316197, member: 571068"] its an orion hp2300 2 channel amp. im using stock HU with LOC... could the problem lie within the LOC?? maybe the cheap LOC that i bought is causing the whine? [URL="http://www.millionbuy.com/hithlc3.html"]http://www.millionbuy.com/hithlc3.html[/URL] that is what i bought. i dont have ti grounded though i tried it grounded on the rear RCAs that for some reason are actually worse than my front RCA. the way i have it setup is the rcas for the components are hoooked up to an LOC and the LOC is tapped into the stock hu radio harness. then i have rcas for the woofer and those rcas are tapped in ot the rear speaker wires from the trunk. i tried the rear rca with it not grounded and it was worse than the front. then i grounded it and thre was no improvement. should i invest in better LOC? what else could it be? or can i just use a groundloop isolator? yes i know its a bandaid like thing that just covers up the actual problem but if it gets rid of the noise then why not [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] before when i first grounded, i forgot to sand so i did the sanding and it got a little better. is my ground not good enough? btw, i only hear the noise coming out from the tweeters nothing from the mids. i also get some static noise as well.
