[QUOTE="Cbass419, post: 8702047, member: 679369"] Hey guys, first post here. I've been out of the car audio world for a few years after having my first kid. Well now I'm sort of getting back in. I got a cheap rockville ss8p sub/amp for my 15 Odyssey for Christmas and finally had a chance to install it. I used the high level inputs. This is the first time I've even used these because I always bought new head units for my previous cars, but that's not an option here. So install was very easy. Ran an 8 gauge wire kit (per manufacturer suggestions), tapped directly to the speaker wires and everything seemed great. Did some quick tests in the driveway and all was perfect. I go for a drive a bit later and the sub starts humming really loud, and continued to do so totally randomly. Even when no music was being played. So I thought I had one of the speaker input polarity reversed. So I switched one and the humming stopped but then the volume was cut in half. If I left one input off completely, the humming stopped and I had full volume. Ok, fine, guess I'll run it like that. Well this morning, it started humming again. Anyone have any suggestions on why it's humming? If I turn the fain down pretty much all the way, it won't him, but then you can barely hear it. [/QUOTE]
