I just got new door speakers and everytime I hit the gas it rings to the rpms of the engine. WTF!

My guess is it has something to do with the ground. I'm not really sure but it seems logical that it can be picking up interference from the engine if the system ground is not connected properly to the chassis. Hopefully someone else will be able to help.
 






sounds like engine/alternator whine to me.....
could be as was stated previously and is the most common, a bad ground...
or your power wires are run right next to your RCA cables....

check those and get back to us....
 






I don't know where else to ground it.
 












why does it matter if the rca's are next to the power? I grounded it to the body do I have to drill a hole and screw it to the frame. The amp is in the cargo place on my 93 x.
 






If the RCA's are run next to the power wire, you can get bleed from the power into your RCAs, which carry an audio signal. You want to keep your power away from your audio as much as possible.

Really man, take the time to be a little bit descriptive about your setup. If you aren't going to bother to type out what your setup is and where you have things run, I'm not going to take any more of my time to try and help you out. No offense.
