skifreek Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 My Stereo speakers constantly make a low level his even when the stereo is off. Has anyone else experienced this and is there anything I can do other than turn up the music or drive faster so the engine noise drowns it out :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 no, it's normal, think it's cos the amp is still on, also it has been mentioned that it can be the bose sound monitoring system, can't remberer the name they call it but it's what adjusts the volume according to the levels of sound it monitors from the cabin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the problem only exists with their amp. Bugs the hell out of me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 At last, someone else with this. Am going to go to my friendly install builders with this soon, will let you know what comes of it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alscar Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 They all do this... Makes you think theres an electrical problem when you first hear it.. But all quite normal, as above something to do with the amp getting constant power... They made a bit of a pants job of the stereo really, sounds ok when you turn it up but other than that your better off listening to the car!
