Buzzing sound, need filter - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Can anyone advice me which filter to install on my 1997 RAV4. It has Infinity speakers, US Acoustic AMP 80 X 4, with a Kenwood receiver. I installed Nology Wires and an MSD 6A. Even though I don't have the face of the receiver in, the speakers still sound with a little buzz and some tick, tick, tick once in a while.

Try grounding your amp to a factory ground.

A ground wire from the headunit to the same spot the amp is grounded may help. We never ground headunits in the dash area if an amp is going in, away run an extra wire back with the turn on and ground with the amp.

Yeah, keep all of your grounds bolted down at the same spot, and keep your amp ground wires as short as possible. For a good grounding spot I ground under the bracket that bolts the seatbelt down. Try moving you speaker and RCA wires away from the power wires, and keep everything clean and neat. It makes a difference.
