[QUOTE="fatryan, post: 912485, member: 550026"] ok, ive sort of figured it out. i went to the amp and messed with the rca's, and it seems that the rear rca's are the problem. i wiggled them and they made the staticy/scratchy sound. i swithed them with the front rca's, then the front comps made the sound. i went behind the HU and wiggled all the rca's, and nothing happened. so it seems that the connectors on the ends of the rear rca's are bad/loose/poor etc. what can i do? now another problem i have (which is probably what mainly caused this problem) is that my amp is mount in a bad place. i have a 2-door blazer. and behind the rear-folding seats is a piece of carpeted metal (it covers the open hole when the seats are folded down). i have it mounted to that. and that only leaves me with about ~3 inches of room between the bottom of the amp and the floor of my hatch. so all the wires are bending pretty severely. this would explain why the problem is with the rca's. there is really only 1 other place to mount my amp, and it would be a real biotch to do it. also, i would need to xtend all wires + rca's. i guess i might just hafta do this unless i want to hear static for the rest of my cars life. do any of you guys have any other ideas? thanx [/QUOTE]
