Default Sd 800x4

This started yesterday my 800x4 for the front speakers
I have this radio wave sounds coming through the front speakers.
this sound happens with bike running or not so things I've done replace y RCA's,hooked a different rca cable,put another ground wire from radio to battery,
to no fix I'm thinking it's in the hp/full/switch and the rca plugs because if I touch and wiggle a little the sound stops .
To really find out if it's the amp I'll move the 6x9's SD800x4 amp to the front speakers to see if the sound still happens.
I'm using all knukonceptz ofc 4ga,8ga and 12ga wiring and replaced battery ground to frame with 4ga wire.
looks like I might have to do a warranty claim.

Are you running a DSP?

What are your speakers and how do you have them wired?

No dsp I'm using the HP settings on the amps.4 prv
6MB250-NDY-4 wired for 2 ohms and 4 MB quart tweeters left over from the component sets I had in the
fairing & lowers. There are 2 cerwin Vagas v469 and 1 audio pipe horns in each bag 6x9's wired for 2ohms

Horns on there own channels both amps mounted in the bags. One more thing when I first hooked amp up I had to move the LP/full/HP a few times for both L&R to play the prv's.

UPDATE : switched the amps and no noise in front speakers. Did find out that this screw was loose that hold the RCA panel so there might be a loose connection from vibrations.
But just for curiosity since I tighten the screw I will hook it back up this time amp will be driving the 6x9's and see if noise is there.

If you don't know by now SD amps aren't what everybody thought they were a year ago. Small is about the only good thing I can say about them. Good luck
