3sixty.1 Questions

[bigtoepfer 0]

Ok so i got a 3sixty.1 It was free and brandnew versus the cost of a 3sixty.2 I know theres a big difference but i figure free can negate those differences for you. Anyway. My radio has some alternator whine/engine noise. Its an AVIC-F90BT. I was wondering if the 3sixty would negate the engine noise because its grounded or would it just simply amplify it.

Thanks guys.

It might make the engine noise worse.

Have you replaced the ground to your h/u? What else have you done to try and be rid of the noise?

What are you goals and purpose for the 360.1?

Preamp voltage boost. Possible active setup. Thats about it i guess. Make things sound better hopefully. And i might possibly be changing vehicles soon. I could use it to intergrate amps to the factory radio.

3sixty.1 cannot do active, only the .2

It also only has set equalizer frequencies that aren't in the greatest ranges.

It can do a factory integration though. At the moment I don't see any value in it for your installation and it is almost guaranteed to add noise not remove it since they aren't known for being quiet in the first place.

LOL, ok thanks. I'll either keep if for the next vehicle or maybe sell it for cheap to someone. I wanted the .2 anyway. Sad thing is this is the first radio i've ever had that had noise from the very beginning. I know pioneers have had these problems. But never from the beginning. And returning it is going to be a bitch. I know its installed correctly. Only thing i can think of is to ground the RCAs

Where is it grounded to and what kind of car?

Sell the 360.1 and get the .2

Honda fit. Factory radio ground. I had some faint noise in one of my older radios but nothing like this

Bypass the factory ground and do your own and see if that helps.

I'll have to do it tomorrow its to dark here now and its beginning to rain anyway

how about adding your own power as well? strait posative and negative wire-to-deck, leaving the ignition wire for now and see if that kills it
