Install Ground Loop Isolator Car Audio
Posted on Monday, January 23, 2006 - 22:52 GMTHi I am in need of a little help on my new car audio system. Every thing is grounded with soldiered ends.
As well as powered the same way. Amp is in the trunk, head unit is under the front seat. Speaker cables are run down one side of the car and RCA and remote switch is run down the other side.
Apr 19, 2008 This Site Might Help You. RE: Can I install a ground loop isolator directly to my car amplifier? I recently installed a car audio system and since have.
Head Unit: Pioneer DEH P3700MP..50 Watts x 4 channels Amplifier: Phoenix Digital 1200W 2ch 175W X 2 ch @ 2 ohms or 125W x 2ch @ 4ohms or 350 x 1 ch Subwofer: 1200 Watt Sony Xplod 2 6x9 Pioneer mounted in the package tray 200 W each. I have installed a 10 Amp Noise Filter and a Ground-loop isolator Reason for installing the noise filter and ground loop isolator is because I had one loud engine noise and a chattering sound.
It has appeared to take care of the noise. Speakers are connected to the AMP on the left/right + /- terminals.

Sub is bridged across the L + and R - terminals. Problem is that the amplifier does not appear to be outputting any bass. However when I remove one of my RCA cables that run from the head unit to the amp and touch it on the face plate on back where it was connected I start hearing bass. However when I plug it back into the AMP no bass. It sounds like the treble is really high. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Then I will answer your questions. When I first installed this it worked ok for about 2 days. I then picked up a real loud engine noise. I then added the noise filter and that did not seem to help. Once I installed the Ground Loop Isolator all of the noise went away.
It is at that time I started to notice I had no BASS. I have my Sons AMP and Sub hooked up like this and it works fine. Just like mine when I installed it for the 2 days it worked. To answer your questions: It is a single voice coil. AMP is set on full. I have since unhooked my Sub and still the problem remains. Koe De Oshigoto Episode 1 Download here.
How do I know how big of noise filter do I need 10/20 AMP? So is what you are saying is I either hook up my speakers or the AMP but not both? Posted on Tuesday, January 24, 2006 - 19:24 GMTOk, I wired the AMP different, I removed the sub and only have the 2 6x9 connected. I already read the info suggested above. I move the HU to the trunk where the AMP and the battery are located. I grounded the AMP and HU to the same place.
