    Bass-like humming coming from speakers when reaching higher RPMs

    Keep in mind that the harness will disable the ANC and likely cause more natural cabin noise.

    Bass-like humming coming from speakers when reaching higher RPMs

    If you replaced your front door speakers you will get this noise. I just went though this with mine. Put the stock speakers back in the front doors and the droning will go away. The other option is to disable the ANC with a bypass cable as mentioned above.

    Thank you. So it sounds like the bypass actually disables the ANC. I don't want to do that. This truck is so quiet I don't want to mess that up.

    ANC bypass question

    When I replaced my stock front door speakers with Infinity, the droning became very uncomfortable. The ANC was not disabled, but it was "confused" and making a loud, deep droning sound at low speeds. It wasn't direct engine noise. Was wondering if this bypass cable disables the ANC or just...

    ANC bypass question

    I recently replaced my front speakers and it made the ANC go haywire. Had to put the stock speakers back in. I heard there is a bypass cable that will solve the problem. Does it disable the ANC? Anyone have a link or video showing the install?

    Correct. Sirius XM makes most of their money by advertising talk shows, sports, and news. Don't need premium sound quality for that. Music is secondary. I do find it odd that not only does XM sound worse than regular FM radio, but it also sounds like my rear speakers don't exist.

    The ANC uses the front speakers. Replacing the front door speakers throws the whole ANC system off. Makes a loud, deep droning sound in low gears. Put the original stock speakers back in and the ANC works perfectly again.

    Yes, I replaced the two corner dash speakers and the two rear door speakers with Infinity Reference and it made a huge difference (really woke up the back seat for sure). I replaced the front door speakers but those really messed up the Active Noise Cancellation so I put the stock back in. My...

    This 5th Gen 9-speaker Alpine system is nowhere near as good as my 4th Gen 6-speaker system. But even then, the XM was not a clear and full as Carplay apps. Replacing the speakers is virtually mandatory for anyone who is even remotely concerned with sound quality. Stock speakers are...

    Interesting. There could be something wrong with the head unit if carplay apps sound bad. But no matter what, replacing the whole headunit probably won't make XM sound as good as streaming. Replacing the stock speakers makes a huge difference overall. I'd start there.

    I also noticed today that my basic FM radio sounds a lot better than XM radio. It sounded clear, full, and a lot of bass. I don't think the issue is the stereo or the speakers. It's something with Sirius XM.

    I downloaded the Sirius XM app yesterday and tried it through Carplay and it sounded WAY better than XM radio.

    Ram is not going to replace the speakers. If they did, they would only put new stock speakers in. If it really bugs you maybe take it to a stereo place and have the whole thing upgraded. Have you tried the XM app instead of the radio channels? I've never tried the app to see if it's any better.
