Alpine-9847 noise problem

Post by mattk425 »

hi, i just bought Alpine-9847 then i install it with sony 6" by 9"speakers, and the problem is that when i play music from cd or tuner or even from mp3/wma i hear this noise like the music was played from old tape.
the settings are orginal i did't change anything.
my question is how can i stop this noise?
can it be caused by wrong speaker wire, on my speakers there's a lable that says 4ohms, the wire i'm using is designed for speakers however it's rated for 2 ohm,s, can this be the problem?
plz help!!!

Check your HU ground. Pull it out and follow the black wire (most likely) and see how its connected, if you can see/get to it. It should be on bare metal, with a firm connection. If you can't find it, or you see something iffy, you could try regrounding your HU. Do you know how to ground correctly?
