Whining from one speaker Have had this issue for a year or so now, and it's finally starting to annoy me to the point where I need to resolve it. My passenger side door speaker will sometimes whine and crackle when I start the car. Other times when I start the car, it will be fine. When it does act up, it will sound like crap and make a whine akin to the sound of a supercharger, rising and falling with engine RPM. It does eventually go away after 5-10 minutes of driving, and then it will be fine as long as I drive. If I turn the car off and turn the car back on, it can come back though for a few minutes. I have the factory monsoon system, and the only thing aftermarket is a 7" Pioneer double din.
Any help would be GREATLY apprecaited!

I have the same issue on my drivers side... Right now I am changing the speaker as it has always had the sound like it was blown. The whine is new, like in the past year. I will let you know if anything changes with the new speaker...
Mine is def. radio interference, as it goes away when I turn off my head unit. If it isn't fixed, I'm tempted to try my stock radio and see if the sound leaves....

I had a similar issue (I tried swapping head units and stock amps) and the issue was still there...turned out to be a loose connection at the battery cables which was allowing electrical noise to enter the audio system, so I'd suggest checking/tightening your battery cables...worth a shot.

Brett Foote Did a couple things to try and fix this. First off I pulled out my radio, unplugged everything, kind of organized the wires differently, moved stuff around back there, etc.
Next I did a custom battery hold down mount, this prevent my optima from moving left/right or front/back. I also put some caps on the top post connectors, as they could have been contacting the radiator and/or the new battery bracket.
I've driven about 50 miles and no whine yet... Hopefully one of these things helped, we'll see though!
