On and off this week i've been having some odd issues, imo. I'm getting some funky noise thruogh ONLY my right door speaker.. the tweeter mounted in the sial panels and the left side and sub don't have this issue. I'm getting a weirdish noise through the speaker.. somtimes the noise will be the only thign that plays, sometimes i'll get music & the noise, and sometimes there will be no noise at all but the music will fade in and out... i think i've described this accurately. also, when i get this high pitched noise, it changes as i accelerate. when the car is off, it doesn't play as bad.

where i get off thinking it may be a mounting issue is that it was doing it while the top screw of the speaker came loose. i'm heading to buy some new clips for it shortly. When i tried to screw it in as best as i could, i didn't have any problems, with the car on or off... ontop of this, i think i may be getting a little noise through my speakers because my power and rca wires are ran next to eachother.. i've noticed this since i'v eupgraded. do i have to run the wire on the otherside of the car or is there somethign i can do to solve this one?

if im reading it right it sounds like a bad connection or somethign wrong with the speaker. what kind of speakers?

When you screwed down the speakers, did all the screws go in easy or did it seem like it kind of had to bend the speaker?

screws went in easy.. bu tthe top one comes loose, i got some new clips through.

but the coaxils are some memphis 6.5" oversized. forgot the actual model... they need to be replaced.. i've had them for like 2 years.

Alternator whine?

Your grounds are good aren't they? I've got alternator whine right now, but that's because of my ground. I'm not going to sand off the paint until I go to fasten both amp's ground.

ground is good.. bare metal, paint sanded off. I don't belive the weird noise i hear is from ground or alternator noise.. its only coming from one speaker.

Hook the speaker up to an AC outlet. That will fix your problem

These are amped right? Swap your RCA's and see what happens.

the thing is that its not a constant issue. i drove up to autozone, then to advanced, and then back home withouto any problems.. so catching it is going to be a pita.

You could also switch the outputs at the amp to help you isolate the problem a little more.
