[QUOTE="408Killa, post: 6749232, member: 620758"] Hello all. Sorry for the bump. I had this same problem with my newly installed (Non PIONEER/PANASONIC H/U) system. (1000w Pyramid amplifier, 2 12" Pioneers, AIWA CDC-Z127) The high whining noise got very annoying! So today I decided to rip everything apart and rewire some stuff. I noticed the guy who installed my system wired the RCA and power cables both on the same side (passenger side). After rerouting both cables separately (One on each side) and grounding the RCA shields to the stereo chasis like the first couple posts show it fixed everything. No more whining noise, no more hissing/popping. Only thing I can see wrong now is that it isn't loud enough. It should be rattling my mirrors a lot more then it is. I have to turn my deck all the way to about 68 before it starts to hit really hard and the stereo only goes up to 80. My roomates starts hitting at 5. Whats up with that? lol Gonna slap in a new deck soon anyway. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
