Im having a grounding problem i think getting major engine noise with my speaker amp, its a Kicker IX Digital Amp, already did a 2nd ground to the deck, and even put in a ground loop isolator..

Right now i just sanded the paint off in the trunk and grounded to the bottom of the trunk, did this twice one side for the digital amp and on the opposite side i did the same thing for the Sub amp..

So where are you all grounding too, or do you think its something else??

Are you running your RCA's the same route as your 12V wire?

they are a good foot apart, i messed up when running them should of done rcas on the other side, but i thought that was the problem first, so i pulled the deck and just plugged in a new set just running it over the seats and stuff and i still got that problem..
