Hi everyone, I need some serious help. I'm going to try and explain as thorough as I can bear with me please
I've had this system wired in its current configuration for several years. Worked fine. Recently I began to get 'cutouts' from audio. Half seconds where the volume seems to lower and you can hear some static. I thought it was my HU so I replaced it (since it was 5 yrs old and needed an ipod touch compatible one). Now I have the same issue, only the static is only present if my subwoofer is ON. (If its ATT in the HU everything worked fine.) I replaced my main battery terminals, cleaned out the battery, checked the main power wire thoroughly for damage and then checked it all the way up to my 2nd stinger battery in the trunk. Re-grounded my stinger battery to make sure it had a good grounding, and checked all wires and running from every speaker and from the subwoofers. When I get past 2/3 volume on my HU with the subwoofers on, they go into a seizure of distortion in which I have to turn off the HU for fear of f*cking them up. Checked the subs they are not visibly damaged and coil responds okay. I have the 'big 3' I've done on the car so I think its getting proper power and grounding (it has before), cables are in good shape, and HU was replaced so can't be noise from the HU. Im stumped.
