Also try running your rca cables seperatly from your remote turn on cable. I ran mine down the center of the car under the center console and carpet to keep them separate from all the amp wiring.

FWIW, my preferred head unit bypass approach these days is Bluetooth into a Dayton DSP-408. Avoiding a bunch of extra DA/AD conversions and head unit variability seems to produce better results. Also, since bluetooth generally streams in AAC, you (probably) even avoid transcoding/downsampling this way when you’re playing standard iTunes files.

How old is your alternator? Worn components could be causing excess electrical noise.
