Where is your remote wire hooked up to? Popping on start up usually has to do with the remote wire.

no, going to the fuse box is usually what causes the issue. are the speakers popping, or just the sub? or both?

hey man...i totally missed this thread. what kind of amps are you running? The only thing i can think of is your having the same issue that guys get when they run an aftermarket deck with stock amps...the stock amp requires 5v turn on and the deck sends 12v causing the pop. In that case you would need to an a resistor in series between your headunit and your amps on the remote wire.

duh...shoulda gone back and read the first post, my bad.

The only think i can think of is a resistor man. Im pretty sure radio shack sells one that drops the voltage from 12 to 5. I saw a pic of one in another thread the other day but i cant find it now.
