Hmm new one to me, who can figure it out?

Alright, I put in a temp. amp for my speakers today. Hooked up everything with car in ACC, seemed to work ok. Turned the car compltely on and the subs are constantly on even at volume 0. But with the car in ACC it does not do this. Now I disconnected the RCAs the sub amps, it stops. If I just have the sub RCAs hooked up and remove the front input RCAs, it stops as well. But it is all normal when the car is in ACC. Any ideas?

Also the speakers give out a strong hiss when I turn up the gains on the amp. It might be because their blown (not sure, they are rather quiet, but I bought a cheap *** amp while my 300/4 is in the shop). But the higher I set the gain, even at a low volume the stronger the hiss gets. Grounds are good.

Hiss in my experience is caused by gains being set too high or noise being induced into the system so other source. Play music and then put on pause. If you hear the hiss on pause, lowering the gains helps. Atleast it did for me.
