[QUOTE="vwPanda, post: 2723220, member: 571408"] I bought a Memphis 16-MCD500 amp from marcusb419er and I'm getting a high-pitched whine. He said its probably my ground but my ground seems fine. Its wired @2ohm to a single Alpine Type-R 12 in a sealed 3/4MDF box. I have 4ga wire running from the battery to the amp and 4ga running from the amp to a seatbelt bolt for a ground(have tried another spot as well). I get 12.6V at the amp with the car off. The whine happens with the car in ACC or running and with and without RCAs plugged in. If I squeeze the amp while its making that noise, the pitch changes. Did I get a bad amp? [/QUOTE]
