I have a 1994 Mark VIII. The stereo has been acting up for some time. Popping and cracking in the speakers. I have tried two other amps that I purchased on Ebay and each of them seem to have the same but slightly different issues; popping, crackeling, or no sound from door tweeters.
I have been told that the amps are to blame. Has anyone had a similar experience and how did you correct the problem? Could I be that unlucky to keep buying defective amps or is there something else wrong?
Another problem is the 10 disk CD player will not play a cd. It temporarily loads it and then moves on; never playing the disk.
Also, has anyone changed out the system? I am considering changing out the head unit and putting in a high powered one (with a built in single cd player). Then running the speaker wires from it back to the amp and splicing in to the speaker wires at that point (bypassing the amp altogether). Will this work and which head units make a good fit?
Thanks for your help!!!
