    RCAs don't usually make a difference, but there's been a car or two that had noise that we couldn't quite get rid of. Pulling out the shielded RCAs and replacing them with unshielded (cheap) RCAs got rid of the noise. No differences in sound, stage width, height, etc. though... :D

    so you had noise, but you pulled out the shielded and replaced them with crappy ones and the noise went away??? strange indeed.

    The sheilding can cause ground loop problems sometimes. I've had it happen especially with cars that have high volume fuel pumps. High pressure pumps usually draw more current and more current means bigger EM fields which affect more stuff.

    Cars are just the worst possible environment to try and set up a quality sound system! Everything is against you from the start! Especially if you have a stock Bose system! ;)
