hey guys,
Boot install startin to take shape now with both side installs semi complete. Have been tryin to work out the best configuration to mount the amps/capacitor/fans/wiring/cd changer/neons etc. I think i'm there but before I cut into my nice new constructions to display the amps I wanna know if placing my cd changer behind an amp will create interference an ruin the sound quality? Its a bit of a tight fit to cram it all in there but I think I have a plan. Interested to hear your wisdom and experience in this situation! Dan T PS: On that note will neons cause interference if placed near an amp too?! |

Exactly what danny t82 said... when you run the lines parallel a current could be introduced to the rca cables, and while this might not be much, its going to an amplifier, which amplifies every part of the signal it recieves.
EDIT: specifically, the current would be introduced to the RCA sheild, and since the amplifier uses this as a reference with the signal wire, difference in voltage could be changed and noise or interference could be introduced. Ive seen this happen with a 200w amp. my friend was having noise problems, he asked me to look at it, we ran the RCA's down the other side of the car, and he hasnt had problems since.
