[QUOTE="Dokken21, post: 1038418, member: 562341"] Dude, The most common cause of this is a bad ground. It could either be the ground to your amp, but it could also be the ground to your head unit. I had this problem once myself - the installer did the ground of the head unit through a factory ground wire. Once he took it out and redid that ground wire separately - no further problems. Another option: there are small devices called isolators (can buy at Walmart) that plug into the RCA jacks of your amp. These sometimes do the trick - removes any noise coming thru RCA cables. My best guess though, is that somewhere you need a better ground connection. [/QUOTE]
