A thank you to those of you who posted a comment or suggestion. I will be
removing the receiver this next weekend to see just how it was wired up. I
found a post from an installers website that suggests that the receiver
fader must be neutral if the factory fader is left engaged and that only the
factory fader should be used if this is the case. This is how I now have it
set-up after some trail and error Sunday and the quality is much improved.
But, I feel that further exploration into how the harness was adapted makes
good sense where your comments about the shared ground as well as the
factory fader and the continued use of the factory amplifier (s???) may
compel me to go ahead and take the time to re-wire with 18/4 and 18/2
homeruns to see if this improves the sound. So, I am just going to lay the
new wire out there across the interior and swap out the factory connections
to see if an improvement is noted.
Thanks again for the input in helping me improve the output!
Dick
