Default Interference audio aftermarket

I have a 2005 roadglide with a Sony 50w per channel head with a 200w amp Pyle problem I'm having is static interference if that's what you call it extra noise. I don't remember it on the last unit I had with amp but I got it now and it's bad. Even hear it through speakers when unit turned off. I replaced amp thinking it was it nope. Need help. Do I need resistor plugs. I used a resistor on the power side of radio and amp no help thx for input and suggestion.

I used the factory radio ground and power wires. The Pyle was just used due to small size. It had a really cheap amp autotronic it worked fine until it left channel went out. Bought another exact amp started having problem than ordered the pyle and same. I know it's simple just not sure what it could be. If I used power wires from factory radio could that be problem ?

That doesn't help. Need to at least run a 10g fused direct to battery and 10g ground direct to battery. You are getting feedback from a potential ground loop.

I had a problem similar with a Pioneer radio, I ran a ground directly to the radio from a ground and solved the problem.
