Default Annoying whine!

Installed new stereo this weekend:

(2) JL Amps
Stealth box
replaced factory speakers

Notice a high pitched whine like noise that comes out of the speakers that mirrors the accelerator.

Anyone know might be causing this. Didn't notice it at first but wife was in the car and of course noticed it and now I can't help to notice it.

sounds like a grounding problem with the radio. Find a new location for that grounding wire.

yup a grounding problem. try moving your grounds around till you find a spot that works..can be really anoying.. but youll find a spot that works.make sure its bare metal.. no paint .you can file the area down. also make sure all audio stuff ground is using the same ground. good luck.

bad ground and also make sure the power cable isn't running next to RCA cables. Can also do it.

Also might be coming from the Prius that you ran over...

The annoying whine on my stereo always turns out be James Blunt.

Wouldn't be about my wife. She refuses to ride since I took off the steps and have to give her a "hand" getting in.
