[QUOTE="Jimi77, post: 8848116, member: 673702"] Whine is the easiest to fix - that's a ground loop. Properly ground the amp. Tie the amp's ground to the HU's ground with ~14awg wire. Ground the RCA jackets at the HU. Ground loop isolator as last resort. The static issue can be isolated to the amp. Could be a bad amp, bad location or bad ground. Sitting over a fuel pump can often induce noise into the amp. I assume the buzzing is orienting from the HU. Have you tried leaving the RCAs connected to the amp and disconnected from the HU.
