I recently added a somewhat cheap 4 channel amp to help drive my speakers in my car. However, now there is a buzz when the car is on that changes pitch when the gas pedal is pressed. How do I get ride of it?
Things have I tried:
Tried a entirely different head unit (I had not tried to use this head unit with an amp before).
Purchased and added a power filter from crutchfield.com (tried putting this on both the ignition line and 12 volt line)
Routed a power and ground connection outside of the car directly to the battery.
Routed line level cables directly to the amp (not near any other metal)
The only time I was able to get clear sound is when I:
Routed the power and ground cable to a battery in a totally different car
Connected my MP3 player to the amp and not the head unit
when the car is off
What can I try now? I have no idea what could possibly be causing this .
