Tonight all of my cox's and tweets started sounding really F*cked up. Out of no where i thought i blew them all its giving off a raspy whining noice from all of my coxs and tweets. My tweets and coxs are ment to take hundreds of watts and they are just running of my head unit. I took them inside hooked them up to my home stereo cranked it and they were just fine. any ideas?

My sub is just fine

any help would be greatly appreciated

maybe its the head unit?

check if there is anything i.e. other wires touching your speaker wires, could be picking up interference from whatever it might be touching...not sure if its the deck tho (acold7dusta: not aimed at your comment, i posted prior to seeing your comment, i was just saying im not sure of the likelihood of it being the deck)...

ooo yea the cox wires could be touching the tweeter wire put thats only in the front, could the front cox's wires touching the tweets wires cause that sound to be in the back stage cox's that are all by themeselves?

well not so much other speaker wire as power wires, rca cables, anything that transmits power or a signal back and forth, maybe something already in the vehicle prior to the speaker wiring...
