Sounds like you have a Dirty Signal to me, Are you using a Line output Converter? or do you have any after market headunit and using the preouts on the headunit?

I'm running a Pioneer single channel sub amp with both line level inputs speaker level inputs, obviously I'm using the speaker level in lieu of a separate LOC. My power wire runs from the battery to the amp and doesn't follow any other wires until it gets to the amp. It does cross the input wires but I did cross at 90 degrees. I can try to rerun them without crossing and see if that helps. Only other thing is that the input wires go directly under the amp, wonder if the amp itself is the source of the stray signals.
Thanks for the input
