I hear Buzzing Sound Through my car Subwoofers. Even when the stereo is off. I checked all cables! there ok!?

I Hear the buzzin hummin noise only When I have My Audio Control Epicenter Connected. And when i Remove the epicenter, The bad Sound Is Gone!! What could be the problem? In this situation. IS my epicenter not working!! I relocated the Ground Wire, And RCA's Brand New. The amp Is connected to Factory Radio, getting my signal with an RCA converter from one of the rear speakers. PLEASE Help!! Pro Installers advice only!! On The Audio Control Epicenter I Decreased the Voltage From 12 volts to 2.5 volts. The Noise Decreased a whole lot, But the noise is still noticeable. What Could I Do!! IS IT The Epicenter Thats Causing the Problem?

Natalie 		Hiya mate. Are the RCA cables near a power line for the amps or speaker wires? The best advice is to keep the cables away from any others as much as possible. Also how long is the ground wire? I recommend keeping the ground wires to under 12 inch long were possible. If your sure there no chance of interference then i'm unsure, i'll keep thinking. I always completely rip out a cars interior when doin an install so nothing runs side by side.

Crosby 		hard to tell with out more info but if i remember right there is a turn on wire and a constant and a ground for the epicenter sounds like the turn on is staying on when the car is off that should be the only way for sound to be coming out of your speakers with the car off. or your amp is staying on and it would be a similar issue. need to find out what is staying on then trace backwards from there

JacobDWolf 		Well the first thing is when you install a system to a factory deck it has really poor signal quality and can get interference very easilty from the other electrical in your car and the more aftermarket electronics you run increases this volnerabilty. The first thing you should do is make sure you have a really good pair of RCA cables with good noice reduction. Like Rockford fosgate, kicker or monstor cables. Cheap RCA cables have very little insulation and are volnerable to noice. Every. Try buying a better RCA converter and when you install it ground it. All of the converters come with a ground conections. Then you have to think of the product your running in your car. If you have cheap product this can cause it as well. Cheaper product has a high distortion ratio and very little technology for noise filtering. Be sure that you run all of your signal cables as far away from the power lines as possible even the remote wire.
