    This is my setup
    Alpine Headunit
    Kicker zx350.4 amp
    Kicker KS Components
    Everything is ran with kicker speaker wire separately NO OEM WIRE. Tweeters are in the door mids are in the door and crossover in the door. My car is a 240sx and the battery is wired to the back and its located in the trunk. I previously had a DX400.4 amp powering everything, sold the DX them purchased the ZX350.4 and thats when the problem started. This is my second install in my second car, had polk with no problems, kicker i have had one headache after another.

    Problem: (when the car is running) My right tweeter buzzes when my volume is set to 1 on my hu, it will get louder when the volume turns up but you cant hear it cause of the music. now if i set the hu to aux and turn the volume all the way up you can hear a faint sound of the FM RADIO (the last station that was played) and you can make out the words. Now if you keep the volume on and rev the engine the whining tweeter noise will get louder!

    WTF is wrong? do i need some static reducers or something? Is kicker bad with Alpine headunits or something?

    p.s. everything is Kicker brand..wire, rca's, amp wire, everything but the hu

    Thanks,
    Nick


    p.s.s. when the car is off it sounds fine..no tweeter squeel

    its a wiring issue,and or an amp issue.

    check your wires to make sure they are tight and check for any possible pinches anywhere.
