[QUOTE="bubbagumper6, post: 7341631, member: 567719"] You really shouldn't speak unless you know what your talking about. The charge density in the chassis is much less because of it's greater cross sectional area so the possibility of a concentrated EMI source is negligible. The main sources of noise on the 12V line are usually the alternator or engine electrical system (i.e. the spark plugs). It's possible for either of them to induce noise into your main power line which can then radiate to your RCA cables. Will this happen in every setup all the time? No. Is it possible? Definitely. Just because you have a handful of setups that haven't experienced EMI noise doesn't mean it doesn't exist. We tell people not to run them on the same side to prevent possible problems, not because we like making their installs more difficult. [/QUOTE]
