I was triing to clean up my center console the other day and moved my booster from inside the console to the outside, passenger side. once I did that I have a very loud and obnoxious buss in my raido. If I plug in and play my I Pod directly into the booster, no noise (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) . I have grounded the raido, booster, even went as far as grounding the sheilds of the RCA cables (and tried different cables) into the booster. That seemed to quiet it up a slight bit but still buzzes when the FM, CD is on.
I then went to raido Shack and picked up a noise supressor (inline capacitor) Still didn't help.
I am begining to think Ignition or Alternator? Every thing was fine till I moved the booster from inside to the outside. This happened once before but not as severe, I just moved a few wires around and it went away.
Any ideas??

Here is the link I found good for the DIY guy who knows enough to be dangerous.
