Engine Noise, Yes, it does have to do with Car Audio. Options

What up. Well, has anyone ever heard of Engine Noise because of your crappy deck. Okay heres the story:

So, I installed my speakers, front and back and then installed my amp to run it. So right now, i have 2 amps, 1 for my speakers and 1 for my sub. But when I bought my deck, I bought the cheapest one they had, $99 installed at Circuit City. Okay so everything was installed, turned on the car and rev the engine and you hear this loud high pitched noise. (It sounds like an extremely loud turbo spooling) so when I drove it, I was at like 4K RPM and my god its so loud so I ended up turning off my deck. Okay so why did it do that? The guy who installed it said my deck was crappy and had only 1 RCA input and I needed 3, so I had to buy the adapters. So splicing(sp.) the 1 RCA input to get 3 inputs = 1 signal to get 3 which gave me the Engine noise. So lesson is, don't cheap out on the fricking deck cuz now I have to buy another one. DAMN!!!!!!

Oh, but if anyone wants the turbo sound without paying for it, do it this way!!! LOL You get the spoool without the blow off.

Cheap deck = poor ground plane = more likely to pick up engine noise.

Try re-grounding your deck to bare metal and make sure it's solid and see if the engine noise goes away. Then do the same with the amps (start with the one for your front and rears.) You can also try upgrading the grounds under the hood.
