Full Version: Static in left split - fixable?
Mobile Electronics Australia > Mobile Electronics Discussion > Sound Quality Discussion

So my left split has started to make static all the time. I don't know if this is a loose connection somewhere or if something in the split itself has died. It's a Rockford Fosgate Fanatic P split so i'd rather get it fixed than chuck it.. Good speakers.

Could this be a loose wire somewhere? Should I take everything apart and tighten it all to see?

OR

Has something died in the split that can be fixed, if it can be fixed where could I take it?

OR

Is the split buggered for good.


If any more info is required please let me know.

move the crossover away from where you have mounted it, if its in the door them i hope you have put a rain coat on them... if they are inside under the dash, near a computer or a klump of wires then it could be picking up noise from there...

The crossover is mounted where the stock speakers used to be (next to the glove box) and I'm pretty sure it isn't noise from any other wiring.

if that fails then swap the rca's on the amp and if that doesnt fix it swap the speakers on the amp from left to right and right to left. if the noise moves then its either the amp of the deck that might have an issue...

you can also do a search for noise problems to find the tutorials in how to combat noise in stereo systems...

the only way that noise can get into the system through the crossovers is the coils inside the crossovers. move it and see if the noise goes. and dont just move is a few centimeters, but move it away from there...

what car is it?

Thanks, but it's not the type of noise commonly found to do with wiring/engine problems.. It's the split itself.

its still helpful for identifying which component is producing the static.

My base question still hasn't been answered; can a speaker itself be repaired?
