Replaced my door speakers with 4-ohm Pioneer 6x9s and Metra 72-6514 wiring harnesses. Now im getting a loud-deep tone that matches the tone of my engine when reaching higher RPMs. Has anyone had this issue when only replacing the speakers? or what do ya'll think it can be?
Thanks

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.

No, it won't cause more natural cabin noise. The noise is already there. It's going to allow you to hear the noise. Since it's no longer creating offsetting frequencies.
I installed the harness. I notice the speakers don’t really sound as great as they did with ANC while in park. The drone definitely went away though. Can’t hear that cabin noise ya’ll are mentioning though.

I never heard a Bass hum, what is their favourite tune?:cool:

Glad you got it figured out. I will keep this in mind when looking at upgrading the sound system.
