guys,

i changed my amp yesterday to a 1600w 4-chan amp coz my old one not working ade..

the problem is, now whenever i accelerate, there's a slight humming sound (like the sound of someone whistling). whenever i accelerate harder, the sound also follows the pitch of my engine.

before i changed the amp, this did not happen... how do i solve this? hope any of u can advice me on this..thanks..

check ur car's grounding.. they didn't do the grounding well when they install ur amp.. and there is a chance that cabling too..

make sure that do not let them to add a suspressor.. because it will decrease ur amp's performance..

Basic principle here is always use the same size wire for the ground & the positive wire from the battery & the ground wire installed rigidly to the chassis(make sure you sand-paper or grind areas) with a shortest possible wire. My 2 cents only.
