System Problem With Subs an Amp

OK here is my problem i been using the same set up in my car for the last 2 years. Everythign is aftermarket All kenwood... Over the Last 4 monthsi been getting a feedback problem. see my subs with make this low thumbing sound that does not go along with the beat. it comes and it goes but over the last month is better really getting worse. Also when I turn off the Head unit the subs keep makign this little boom boom boom sound very very light but it annoying. To give you an idea of my set up here it goes

I'm running all RCAs for both amps
One Amp Powers Both subs
Second Amp powers THe other 6 speakers
Power to the amp is striaght no capativers I think that the word??
i'm running stock Battery

If you need more info. on how to help me out just ask....I did all the System work myself.
Thnx Jason

the problem is in a ground somewhere. check the amp ground first, then the head unit ground. Move the headunit ground to a chassis ground instead of in the harness for good measure. next check the RCA's. first wiggle them and try to recreate the noise. If nothing try this;

take a small guage wire and touch it to the outter edge of the rca jack behind the headunit. the outter metal part where it plugs in. touch one end of the wire to the rca and the other to the metal part of your deck. You may have a bad RCA ground in your deck. if you do this peice of wire will fix it.
