New 2008 X30 is great but......
Yo people, im new to these forum so a big hello to everyone. Ok we have purchased a X30 and boy we are happy with it but we have one problem. The audio hums and the dealer cant sort it. They have tryed but it always comes back as soon as we take the boat. It's tone will change with the engine rpm and im wondering if this is a common problem on 2008 mastercrafts? My friends 2008 xstar dont do it and it has the exact same audio package.

Here she is

Sounds like the amp isn't grounded exactly right because you getting engine noise in your speakers... Where is it grounded? Beautiful boat and welcome.

Ground problem...
Check to make sure that all of your audio system is using a common ground.

Amplifier
Check with your dealer. we had the same issue with a 2008 X2 and it was a Bad grounded Amplifier but inside the unit itself, we replaced the amplifier and problem was fixed.

Your dealer will gladly take care of this.

Check your speaker wires make sure they are not running along side any power cables and it wont hurt to get them away from your Pre-amp output cables running to your amp. I believe the JL amp instructions say to only cross them and not to run them together.

Good Looking boat. I like the wrap and color combo on the interior.

Welcome
I am jumping on the bad ground bandwagon, check all your amps for a common ground
If you still have the problems?? have the dealer switch out your amp

I agree, that is a (hot) one of a kind.
