[QUOTE="Toyshop, post: 8771855, member: 684339"] just installed a new 5 channel amplifier in my car using a d518 line output converter, and I am now getting a ticking from the speakers at 0 gain and 0 volume. I also am getting a whine when the car is running that goes up with rpm. I have tried re grounding the amp and verifying that it has a good ground. The head unit is a continental tr7412ub-or, which looks period correct in my car so I'd like to keep it, but it doesn't have rca pre outs. The amp is a soundstream T5.2500dl. I tried using a different line output converter, just a cheap metra one, and it seemed to help slightly. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks! Also I am using high quality rcas that are ran on the opposite side to the power cable. I rewired the speakers as well and it did not fix it. I also tried adding a ground loop isolator and it actually made it worse. Thanks [/QUOTE]
