[QUOTE="stones, post: 9088, member: 540734"] OK, basically I have no idea whats wrong, but a couple suggestions don't hurt. #1-speaker wire, I have heard crackles and static come from speakers with too small of wire hooked up to them, but only when there is music playing(power going though the wire). #2-RCA cords, if they are run too close to power wires they can pick up some static. #3-Ground, if the amps don't have a good ground they can pick up alternator noise(a staticky wineing noise)and cause your speakers to "pop" when you turn off your system. #4-Gain, If your input sensitivity(gain control) is set too high you will get a staticky hiss noise from your speakers( like the tape hiss a cassette deck would give). This is all I can think of right now, if I was you I would first look at the gain control because what you are describing sounds like it maybe because the amps sensitivity is set too high. I hope this helps a bit, write back to tell us all what you find. [/QUOTE]
