Symptom Diagnosis Remedy
Check connections, run the
RCA cables on a different route
away from sources of high
current.
Check connections, bypass
additional components (cross-
overs and equalizers) between
the source unit and the ampli-
fier. Connect one component
at a time to determine the
culprit. Repair or replace com-
ponents as necessary.
Disconnect existing speakers
and connect a test speaker to
the output terminals of the
amplifier. If noise is gone, re-
route the speaker cables away
from sources of high voltage.
Check ground connections and
connect amplifiers, signal pro-
cessors, and other components
to a central location or try a
different grounding point on
the chassis.
Check connections, disconnect
antenna from source unit. If
noise is gone, install an an-
tenna ground loop isolator.
• If noise persists, see your Authorized Rockford Fosgate Dealer.
