It could be that the difference in physical space between the amp and the alternator is enough with the amp installad in the trunk area to eliminate picking up the RFI from the alternator.

It could also be that the RFI is fooling the autosensing circuit in the amp (if it is autosensing) into sensing the RFI as audio signal, thus negating the power on delay causing the thump as well as the alternator whine you,re hearing.

You might try this before you attempt to install filters. If the RFI is being sensed by the amps position to the alternator rather than having it introduced into the amp thru the wiring the filter may not help. That is not to say that they cannot help, bit it is best to Identify how the noise is being introduced into the amplifier.

If you want to talk about this, give me a call. Send me an e-mail for me to reply to and I'll send you my phone#. Send the E-Mail to my work address: gillla@techservintl.com
Now you starting to confuse me. I know that the position should not effect the amps sound because its in the same location just up on the seat back but still in trunk, like I said about 2 in which is nothing.

I will have to email you and give you a call about the RFI thing. Im not sure what that is.

Im sending an email.
Thanks for some help.
