    Default engine sound through speakers

    hey guys its probably been asked befor but i'll ask again, i have just recently completed my system, my last installation was on the weekend i run my 3rd rca to my amp and subs, befor that i had 2 rcas running to my 4 channel amp, when i did this i used to get engine sound comming through my speakers as a result i moved my power cable to the opposite side of the car to the rca's this eliminated the problem a bit. After the weekend installing the 3rd rca the engine sound has come back worse, i have heard of supressors what are they where do i get them from and roughly how much, other than that the set up is awesome im wrapped with the job ive done, thanx for the help

    alternator suppressors are just to ground the alternator better, cost about $4
    K-mart even sells them. (Don't know if thats the right supressor u where thinkin of?)

    Fix all of your earths. make sure they are on a good piece of chassis, and sand back around them if possible. You could also upgrade the earth points from the battery. 0 gauge cable going from the -ve terminal to the block and also to a good earth point

    It would be really helpful if you actually told us what equipment you're using...
