    i just installed a 5 channel amp, so far all door speakers are connected to it, subs are not in yet. when i turn my HID lights on i get a popping noise from the speakers for just a short second. there is no static from the speakers after that. no radio static or anything. ive already gone through and re-routed all the wires for the amp so that the power wire is not near any speaker or RCA cables, and made sure the ground was good. when i turn the amp off the static goes away. i am stumped as to why it is happening.
    can anyone give me some insight on this??:confused:
