ok so this really threw me off.. crazy shit.. Ok so i had a few problems with noise.. was pissing me off so i finally did something about it..

to start off i already had grounded my rcas that went to the amp to the headunit..

using my ipod it makes squeaking noises(don't know if i fixed this or not yet..) so with my headunit(f900bt) it has rcas in for ipod so i went to ground them..

I used to have a little static previously.. I hooked up the ipod rca grounds and it was alot more!! so i disconnected it.. Got me thinking so i disconnected the ground for my other rcas and the fuzz was completely gone.. and new problem is when my subs were supposed to be off they were on.. so i grounded just the sub rcas and fizz is completely gone and so is the previous sub problem..

Now then the alt whine was still there and sounded louder.. so I play with the rcas nothing.. didn't help.. moved them every which way.. then i went and grabbed some cheapie ones from a long time ago.. hook them up wam.. problem solved.. so idk why the other ones were so gay but its like they were bad..

Cliffs- if you have static fuzz noise read above.. if not you might not want to read it all..

alternate question.. dunno if this is solved yet haven't played enough but when i play music every once in a while.. no matter the source it will skip.. it won't even be for long.. maybe one word or part of a word and do this for a little while but keep playing the song.... any help?
