[QUOTE="Moe Lester, post: 5713132, member: 551478"] The wire may not be touching the chassis, but only a thousandth of an inch away. When the volume is up and enough voltage is going through that wire, it may be able to arc from the wire to the frame. Think of it like a spark plug, only a much shorter jump and a much much lower voltage. I believe that is what he was saying. Since you say moving a wire causes the tweeter to cut in and out, i would imagine you have found the source or at least part of your issue. tighten up all your connections and see if that fixes the issue.
