Default Terrible radio reception

Since i've installed my Infinity BassLink sub i have had terrible radio reception, to the point where i can't hear anything unless i turn off the sub. Is there anything that i can do to gain my radio back?

That's an odd problem man. I don't think i've ever herd of a suwoofer making sound frequencies that interfear with radio frequencies. Is that even possible? Maybe someone else with subs has had that problem before. No help from my end though...sorry dude.

PS: If you have listened to music without the radio (ex: CD or laptop) did the sub sound good? Is it a good buy?

Perhaps the remote turn on lead is causing issues with the radio reception. What wire is being used as the turn-on for the baslink? If its the same wire that works the antenna, there could be a problem. Wichita Falls is too far away, otherwise I would come over and help.

I'd say its a pretty good buy, the only downside i've had is that i can't get radio reception but other than that for the price i say its worth it.
