I just installed 2 amps in my car.

Got a weird buzzing noise coming out of the speakers. The noise intensifies when i accelerate. Amps turn on fine tho.

I'm running 4 gauge power wires from battery to the distribution block. then two 8 guage wires, one going into amp 1( sony explode 500w max for 4 speakers), and the other going into amp2 (mtx blue thunder 280 max for sub). Then i ground the two amps separetly with 8 guage wires. If these info helps.

Okay, looks like buzzing comes from the sony. When i take the sony offline , the sub works fine.

So does anyone know how to get rid of the buzzing??? someone suggested that it was the power wire being too close to the RCAs, but i did run RCAs on one side of the car and Power wires on the other. Thanx for any help!!!

run the right size (errrrrrr EDIT) wire to ground..... why would you run smaller??? :eek: Go 4ga... [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] and make sure the ground is not to a seatbelt bolt or that it's RIGHT to paint.... [img]smile.gif[/img]

Ground is with the bolt that holds the atenna , if that helps...

Thanx for the reponse..

ok bad idea..... [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img] ummm I'd suggest to move that to a better ground and scrape the paint around it to get a soild ground..... also upgrade the grounds.... 4ga.... Hello?!? [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

please give an example of a better ground....it's hard to find a bolt in the trunk.

And run both amps with 4 gauge ground?? i dun have a ground distribution block

no you have to make your own... yeah don't distro the grounds make seperate ones for each.... do a search.... it will help you lots...

Okay, thanx a lot....but what u think of the buzzing noise, where does it come from??

the grounds... fix those then try your RCA's

Thanx for the help, will definetely fix the grounds....maybe even necessary to drill a hole in the body?? where's good spot to drill a hole??
