[QUOTE="LekRap, post: 967685, member: 15006"] [MENTION=7124]The Car Stereo Company[/MENTION] and anyone else that might be able to offer assistance.... So I got my kicker kit installed professionally a few weeks back. I know little to nothing about stereos, so I thought do it right and just bite the bullet and pay for the install. The system sounds awesome and I am VERY impressed with the improvement over the Sony sub and speakers. Only problem is that I am getting a "grumbling", I would call it, when I first start up and shut down the truck from the sub. I would compare it to the sound of wind inside the cab on a windy day. When the music plays, I don't hear it. Not sure if it's drowned out by the music or it does seem to go away with the music. It was suggested that it could be a bad ground, which I checked and is solid. The install guy said that he thought that the small amp that is attached to the sub was defective. How possible is that? I'm leaning towards an install issue. I did give him the "special instructions" that would be needed to make the system work in the Sony system. He says he did all that. I looked for where he would have used the brown and green plug deal and couldn't find it anywhere installed or in the box of leftovers either. Anyone have any ideas what this could be? [/QUOTE]
