[QUOTE="ghawkes10, post: 607173, member: 556795"] If the most likely reason why I am getting noise from the speakers is a bad ground, how could I check? As for where the ground connection is now I just used the aftermarket wire harness that had a ground wire which I crimped to new h/u wire. Is this sufficient? If grounding is the culprit can I just ground to the chassis and from the chassis back to aftermarket wiring harness? As for your question regarding the amp. Yes, I am running RCA cables but I still need to hook up the front speakers to the amp via speaker wire. That was my thought process when I hooked new speaker wire from the wire harness to the trunk (not head unit to trunk.) My reasoning for doing this was for ease (meaning I don't have to run new speaker wire to each door I would just do it from where the factory wire met the factory h/u) BTW, this site is great. Thanks [/QUOTE]
