bad ground, clean it up. if that doesnt work go to an audio shop and tell them and they have something that grounds your speakers seperately

you don't ground speakers... it's two wires from the amp or headunit

I have some JL speaks, I had a horrible ground on some tiny little bolt in the dash, when I moved it the engine whine stopped.

Grr...I just redid all my connections and put crimp caps and used electrical tape on top of those to make sure everything stays in place. Still have the same problem. No wires are exposed at all, but still have the same problem.
