[QUOTE="jacko, post: 2513002, member: 559993"] What exactly does it matter that you have a "cheap" amp kit. As long as you have the right gauge for the right amount of power the power/ground doesn't care what brand is slapped on the jacket. The only thing that will matter is your RCA's somewhat. Check to see how your grounds are- You said it sounds like thunder, If this was an issue of running RCA's by a power wire or exhaust or whatever voodoo you may think it be, it would be a constant hum or move in pitch with the RPM's of the car. Try a different Deck- I have seen many people that have accidentally shorted out their RCA outputs at their deck by letting their live RCA's touch any metal(even the amp itself) in the trunk. It's happened. Let us know what you do next. [/QUOTE]
