Default Amplifier issue! Help people

I know most of you have Monsoon Systems but my 95 Firebird Formula has the 10 speaker package and my stock amp only amplifys the sail panels, and I tried amplifying all my speakers with a 4 ch amp and I get a loud beeepp noise to my speakers but my stock amp stops working. does anyone know how to fix this problem

Did you rewire all the speakers and use a line out converter when you installed the amp? Did you leave the stock speaker wiring uncut? (the sail panel amp requires that speaker signal for input)

The factory head unit doesn't have RCA output so you must have installed an aftermarket head unit. That's useful information to include when asking questions like this.

So how did you connect the factory amp to the head unit?

well i have a wiring harness connect to my Pioneer head unit. the factory amp works but when I tried adding an amp to the front speakers even to the rear speakers i here a buzzy noise but only when the car is turned on. i can turn the ignition backwards just to turn power and no buzzy noise but when the car is on that noise is like awful
