I should have used 'noise' in lieu of 'engine whine' to not be specific as the same concept applies. youre picking up induced interference from an energy source, which has been found on many occasion to be caused by, but not limited to, faulty alternators, faulty batteries, faulty ignition...

Def voltage drop if in sealed enclosures that don't afford severe loading issue nearing subsonic, combined with headlight dimming and inducing a protection fault. Subsonic filter could be set too low for the driver's frequency range. Bass boost frequency can be centered too low or the bass...

When an anomalous source of engine whine cannot be located, i always start with electrical as it is usually caused by uneven ground potential in my experience'especially when integrating stock with aftermarket equipment. Fastening a long 16ga wire at your alternator case via alligtor clip or...

Sounds like a phase issue. Try reversing polarity on one sub and report back.

If the bluetooth is integrated into the head unit, and no sound, my first thought is that you most likely blew an internal component. Possibly pertaining to the pre-amp section, maybe a pico fuse. Personally, by process of elimination, I would find a signal source to patch in via rca to test...

You failed to read the part where he is genuinely asking for more details of your predicament. If you mean rpm dropping at idle when you turn it up, it means either your power connections are not up to par, or your alternator is just under more load, taxing more horsepower from the engine...

Most likely shorted out the amplifier output and it is now in protect... or worse, blew something. Pull all the wires off the terminals and test with a different driver. If it has no output, you may need to have it serviced, but if all is fine, youll need to pull your door back apart to find a...

Different spec drivers sharing the same alignment is a big no-no in all audio applications without extensive trial and error testing with professional engineering equipment. If it lacks somewhere, change out equipment. Unless theyre kappa perfects, Infinity drivers are not really meant to be...

Since when did they start calling semen '9% beer', and a bukkake funnel a 'watermelon sour punch straw'? I digress, but the answer is yes.

you could, and have a crapload of overhead power at your disposal, but that's not something i would recommend considering that can be a potential of 3-4 times the power being delivered to your drivers upon large spikes in signal amplitude that can cause catastrophic failure. in addition, you...

two of the first thoughts that go through any seasoned car audio hobbyist's mind concerning a lack in 12vdc power transmission should be; 1: are the terminals properly connected and tightened without galvanic corrosion or a substrate (paint, rust) hindering conductivity through connection...

as far as i know, all 4 channel amps have at least two gain adjustment potentiometers. one for channels 1/2, and one for channels 3/4,.. some have separate gain adjustment for each channel, but usually by more clarity-oriented manufacturers from yesteryear and higher end products of today...

your car's voltage regulator may need to be replaced. did you get a sudden cold snap over the weekend like we did here in the states?

gossamer,... it's name is gossamer. looks to be well built, with the frame possibly being proprietary to the manufacturer, but im stumped.

i didnt want to be an outright jerk, but the applied ignorance of people to not try the manuals first is beyond me.
