Buzzing noise in Speakers

I did a search on this already, but I could only find info on poeple having this problem with aftermarket systems. I get a buzzing noise in my 2 rear speakers only, and it changes with engine rpms. It does this with the stereo on or off. Does anyone have an idea for what this is and what I can do to fix it?
Thanks for any help.

same problem here, what ull need to do is get a multi-meter and reground the Head unit somewhere else. Under the steering column is good, but i havent found a perfect ground that will get rid of it completely. multiple grounds will work too.

Shouldn't it be all the speakers though? Or could it be something to do with the factory amp? I have the monsoon system.

give it a shot, At worst u upgrade ur ground and have a better ground anyways, Check the ground on the monsoon amp too. Worse comes to worse, try swapping it with one of ur friends with his stock amp and see what happens.

your getting interference from your electrical system, most likely the fuel pump. You need to run twisted pair speaker wires and twisted pair rca's. They are set up to loop and rap in a perpendicular angle to cancel out noise. Another way is to run the rca's away from the existing wiring, like along the center console. This is with an external amp and so on.

stock amp is behind the rear Right hand hatch. Its hidden behind the shock sensor behind a big black plastic triangle. Ull prolly have to take out ur spare to see it.
