    Amplifier grounding location?

    First I had it grounded to the wiring harness, I thought that may have been the problem, so I grounded it to the chasis on the car, nothing changed. I'm about to go test out your suggestions now!

    Amplifier grounding location?

    Both static, and whine. Picks up alternator noise, and even noise when the ipod is changing. Also the speakers pop whenever I turn it on. I went to take it in to have someone else install it all because I'm having so many problems, but it would cost around $150. I already have everything...

    Amplifier grounding location?

    I have mine grounded here, but I am having so many noise issues I am wodering if this is not a good spot. Where do you guys ground your amp? (And yes, I scraped the paint away.) [Broken External Image]:

    Speakers causing much noise.

    Soooo... I moved the speaker wiring inputs on the amp, (FL is now FR), and now the noise is on the right. What does that mean? I also switched around the RCAs to see if it was the cable making the noise, and the buzzing always came out of the same speaker.

    I'm almost done with my install! Now, the only problem is the left side is noisy as hell. It picks up noises when changing songs and such, and also has a loud buzzing noise to it when nothing is playing. I'm confused though because the right side and the subwoofer and extremley quiet. Could...

    What components do you all use?

    I had a pair of Image Dynamic CXS64 comps, but ended up not fitting well at all in my '02 Trac. I need some in the $200, so I was thinking of getting the Alpine SPX-177R comps. What do you guys think?

    Nevermind I'm such an idiot. The terminals wern't connected tight enough. Thanks for all the help!

    Car won't start after installing head unit.

    Yeah it is an aftermarket. There is a little red light with a button on the back for my alarm, and I thought it was always blinked before but now it's not. I tried holding in the button but that didn't do anything.

    Car won't start after installing head unit.

    Whenever I reconnect the terminals, my alarm goes off, and i just heard a fast clicking noise for about 10 seconds last time I did it.

    Car won't start after installing head unit.

    I tried to install my head unit last night (Alpine 9857), and got all the wires hooked up to their respective color on the harness. When I put the key in, everything powers up and worked fine, but when I try to start my car, it will just click, and not start. A few of the wires didn't seem the...
