Speaker buzzing

i just put in in some rear speakers (only speakers in the car) and there is a loud buzzing while the speakers are playing. Im thinking its prolly because my 4 gauge wiring is tangled with my rca cables in the drunk, but if its not, what else could it be?!?

1st think if you are drunk and think it is good to play with wires you need think about it

2nd why are you running back speakers

if you have power and rca;a in a knot ..........your speakers buzzing

i would also look at your neg wires

no no i was just kidding about the whole drunk bit, also the only reason i only have my rears in is cause im waiting to install my components (still need to find tweeter cups). Everything is messy in my trunk and i just wanted to test run it, but i should untangle it all first. Oh the buzzing happens more as the rpms increase when the motor idles...
