I have had my system in for a little over a year now. 2 kicker 10's and 2 hifonics amps pushing them. And for no reason at all I can hear a slight hum in my base from when i accelerate. I also get short bursts of knocks from my sub when I load a CD. The noises when you hear the CD player reading the CD is in my sub but not in a high pitched form but bass. I don't know if I have a short somewhere or what the deal is. Thanks in advance!

your getting alternator noise because you have a bad ground connection

You need a better ground. Grounding is the most essential thing in electronics. Bolt that ground straight to the body of your vehicle. Ground everything separately. Stereo, and both amps need own ground. You may need to increase ground wire size also. Hope this helps you.
