[QUOTE="jeepsrock, post: 225113, member: 547907"] Alright while driving the other day, it started to rain and i strated to hear this static coming from my front speakers and really bad from the tweaters. Now weather this is a quincidence with the rain maybe, i am not sure. This static can only be heard on low volume music. I can hear this static normally on jazz and classical music. I have had this system for just about a few days, so its possible it was happening b4, but i didnt hear it. I have moved te ground wire to another location and it sill occurs. Unfortunately this problem is not one which occurs all the time its something that goes and comes and hardly occurs when the cars engine is off. One other thing that happens is when i switch modes on my HU from like tuner to CD i hear a small pop--its not loud , but i am unsure if this sis normal.The one thing that worries me is how likely is this a problem with the amp. I heard from a few threads that this model the us acoustics 4085 had some issued with static. Anyway tom i will try another ground location and try to shorten it a bit, but please inform me if you have any other suggestions as this is pissing the hell of me now. Here is rundown of my system: Front: Infinity ref 5000cs (conn to AMP) REAR: Alpine 1329S (conn to HU) SUB: Kicker C12 (conn to AMP CH3+4) HU: Alpine 9805 Power/ground wire: 4 guage RCA running thru center Speakers wire running thru driver side Power and REmote running thru Passanger side.
