Nope. The RCA aren't near any lighting or In contact with anything that I would think would be the cause.

The noise is very faint and can't be heard with the engine running or music playing. IMO it sounds like inherant floor noise and isn't worth the effort to chase down. But it is your ride and if it's driving you crazy... (I'm a little OCD so I could completely understand)
​​​​​​It is there no matter what source I hear it. Only with volume all the way down. It doesn't affect the music.
Idk if a bad ground could cause it, battery to frame ground? Seams like if it was a bad battery to frame ground I'd have other issues.
Like I mention before, I noticed it years ago and never had any issues. I prob should just forget it

The way you describe it it sounds inherent to active components in the signal path (not cables or grounds or induced noise from other sources). I'm too lazy to go back to see what all is installed but you could try removing the input to the amp. If the noise remains it's almost certainly the floor noise in the amp and there's nothing much to do about it. If it goes away try disconnecting the input to your DSP (if you have one). If the noise goes away it's upstream from there and likely the HU. Again, if it was me I'd just button it all up and go for a ride and turn up the new tunes.

If you hear it with the HU muted, most likely floor noise from your amp or dsp. You can unplug the inputs and see for sure..as hamah mentioned

rsking if you have to put your ear to the speakers to hear the white noise then it sounds to me like standard floor noise from an amplifier with its gains set to where you need them to be to hear the music at highway speeds, no need to worry

So no more post like that lol
One of my biggest regrets in life is selling my 66 Chevelle Malibu SS (396 big block). I said "one of" as my biggest regret is selling my 78 Ducati 900 Desmo Super Sport. Man I miss that bike and wish I still had it! If I only knew then what I know now

I dunno, maybe not if you've ridden one and listened to that awesome sounding desmo valve system. I love that bike.

Yes sir. No doubt about that.
My biggest mistake was selling my 1972 Chevelle in 1987 $3500.00. That was the going price back then. What a huge F U on my part.
The prices now are crazy,but only going to go higher the more I wait. Plus I'm not getting any younger,so for me now is the time
