I'm relatively new to having subs, so I'm not entirely sure what the deal is. Even when I have the stereo off, the subs pulse a low, rhythmic beat. I can't hear it when the music is on. Is is possible that the reason for this is magnetism> Seeing as they are directly below the 6x9s in the back. Any more info anyone needs ask, I'll do my best to supply it....

no. most likely your amp is still on. something's not right, check your wiring.



car audio noob since 1984.

most likely a bad ground, i had the same problem, now i fixed it but still have a engine whine. Check your ground and make sure it is a clean secure one.

OK. Yeah, the amp is on, but I configured it that way because it's only powering my subs, so I put a switch on the remote wire so I can turn it on/off as I want. Even when the music is going I can hear it though, on low volumes. I'll try to find a better ground- any suggestions? It's in the trunk (duh) of a 2000 cavalier z24. Right now I have it on the hook that the trunk net goes on. I unscrewed it and stuck the wire in there, then re-screwed it... ghetto, sure, but easy. thanks all.

get 4 gauge ground stinger is what i use, ground the wire on a bolt under your back seat thats what i did, it works perfect, cant see the wire

yeah definalty find a different ground, or purchase a ground loop isolater. I tried using one on my car, but it wouldn't even allow my amp to turn on, so i just deal with the whine and pop..... kinda sucks.

sounds like your amp is staying on after you turn off your radio....so hit the switch when you turn the car/radio off....
