    6:40 That is what ground loop isolators are for. They have a random ground wire from a small box that your supposed to run to ground. They actually do exactly what you ended up doing.
    On a second note, 4 Channel Class A/B amps will pickup distortion for high or mid pass filtering easily. Because its a much higher frequency. From class D or Class A/B amps for subs will not pick that up because the frequency is far lower than what you would hear in your Mids, and High tier speakers. Its not that they are finicky, its that they are producing a signal you now hear because low frequencies for subs will not broadcast this on a lower Hz.

    Maybe something with the ground plane of rcas in the input section of amp. Someone like Dean and Fernando at Five Star Car Stereo,Mark of CAF or Steve Meade (too many others to name)could give some advice. I am sure they have ran into the same issue.
    Another possibility is an rca is going bad and the Marts amp is more sensitive.

    Luckily Sundowns are so easily reconeable because if your track record continues im sure that you'll end up smoking these coils and when you do just go to Apex Audio and order a set of drop-in recones with upgraded parts like an 8 layer coil and some nice and stiff black or red spiders and really beef them up a bit to handle the kind of abuse you so love to give your woofers lol

    I'm getting a lot of noise from a Taramps Smart 3 how did you say you got the noise out of the Marts amp? Solder from head unit chassis to RCA ground? I get terrible noise with RCA's hooked to amp but it goes silent when I unhook them. They are silent when connected to RF T800, I can turn the gain to lowest setting on Taramp and still getting some noise.

      I think its Rfi, interferance, from that type of Full bridge amp. I have heard of people wraping tin foil around the last 12inches or so of the Rcas by the amp, just make sure to zip tie them so they dont touch the amp, or the very ends of the Rcas.

      @@ParkerTheBasshead yea. these things have issues with their internal grounds on the RCAs. One little arc and they get fried. I had to do the same thing to mine. I took speaker wire and wrapped it around all the RCAs on the back of the head unit then grounds the wire out on the frame of the unit. Never had a problem after that. Once it looses that ground the rcas attempt to ground through the amp in order to get back to the head unit. Doing that trick will reroute the ground to go to the unit instead of through the amp and vehicle. Very common problem with pioneer. You have to make absolute sure you have the battery disconnected when to are plugging and unplugging the RCAs. Or you can just perform this mod on all your pioneer units and solve the problem for good. Lol 😆
