Default Resolving Wicked Amp-Hum

So, just got my Empeg and amp installed last night and have a wicked amp hum/whistle under load, both accelerating and decelerating. Is this ground-related or a consequence of having power cables, speaker wire, and interconnected running near each other, parallel? How do I go about solving this?


Thanks.

yes, you know the problem - you just said it : running the power and speaker wires running together. Redo the wiring route, keep power battery side = right.
