Default "Whining" noise

You say you hooked the head unit up using a factory harness conversion kit.
The ground provided with the factory harness is known to be noisy. It also
returns currents for tons of other electronic modules in the vehicle. Run a
dedicated ground from the head unit to a bae metal spot on your vehicles
chassis under the dash. It should clear the buzz right up.

I do have a dedicated sub amp. The noise is not present from the sub. All
the other speakers are running from the HU. I will try to give the HU a
better ground and see if that helps.

Thanks for your help.

You definitely have a grounding problem bub.

Do you have a dedicated sub amp? All your other speakers running off
another amp or the head unit?

My 76 Aspen kicked the bucket last week, so I pulled out the HU, amp,

sub,
rear speakers, and wires for the amp, and installed them in my 93

Dynasty.
Install was smooth and it sounded great with the ingition switch in

the
ON
position.

Turn the car on, and there is a slight whining coming from all 6

speakers
(not counting the sub). More so from the rear speakers. It gets louder

the
faster you revv the engine.

All stock speaker wires were used for speakers. Front 4 are stock

speakers,
rears are Boston 6x9's. For now I have disconnected the rear speakers

and
the noise is only audible between songs. The noise does not come from

the
sub. If you turn the volume up, the noise gets louder. HU is an Aiwa
CDC-x417, I did buy a wiring harness for this car, I used butt

connectors,
there are no exposed wires and all connections are tight.

I was thinking it could be a ground problem, but I would really like

some
ideas before I rip the dash apart again, the Dynasty isn't nearly as

easy
as
my Aspen.

Also, would it over load my deck to hook my rear speakers to the front
channel? They don't seem to be able to handle the bass when I turn it

up,
but with just the fronts and the sub I can crank it (have Fade set to

R
6)
and there isn't an issue at all.

TIA for any help.
