Default Subwoofer system makes engine noise

Connected my subs today, found that the subs makes a quiet bassey voice with the engine and a low pitch sound with the cars drivability gets annoying what can solve this problem ?

Where did you ground your amp? Make sure it's good.
Did you run your RCA's with the power? If so you should separate them and run them on different sides.

You may have some audible interference if you use cheap RCA cables. You do not have to have expensive brands, just as long as they are decent.

Could be a crappy amp also.

T off from the stereo ground with an 18 gauge wire and ground it to the same point as the amp ground or terminal.
