i have the same problem lately to -
Sounds like alternator whine.....no pun intended. Its typically caused by having low level(RCA) wires too close to a 12v power source. So as the alternator spins faster the car's electrical system picks up the whine or interference. It is then passed to the RCA lines going to your amp, and untimately your speakers.
A good set of RCA cables can help, but you can get by with cheap ones if your keep them away from the "noisy" wires. If they have to cross, do it at a 90 degree angle.
If you dont have any amps, then it could just be a bad ground or a ground loop. I usually try to ground the hu to a GOOD metal surface and ground it the same as an amp. Sometimes the antenna ground can create a ground loop too.
If you still can get rid of the whine you can get supression caps....but thats a last resort and theres some debate as to how well the work anyway. Ive never had to use them, but have taken them off many systems after regrounding and rerunning the wires.Comment

usually a bad or poor rca's will help induce the noise. i have ran all my rca's and power on the same side every time and i never had an issue, though i use expensive rca's.
it can be a few things, the amp itself, bad ground or bad head unit.
usually a ground loop isolator will help inline on the rca, or seperating the power and rca's will help even more.What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.
You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

Check three things. First, all the grounds. Second, the RCA cables. Third, check the brand of your equipment. If it's crappy, it will sound like crap. But I'm sure it's just a grounding problem, it happened to me when I first put my stuff in.

depending on the radio radio the ground trace inside the radio might have gone bad which will cause noise no matter what brand rca or amp you use, because its coming from the source.

it may be the headunit. but before assuming that it is check ur rca wires. if ur wires are good n everything then try sending the headunit off to get checkedvouches --> mj1220mj,Trickedaccord92, Maple 50175, Customlowz, 92lxComment
