Get a 3.5mm jack adapter to rca, then plug ipod on one side and on other you have rcas to plug into the amp.

I'm pretty sure the headphone jacks on the ipods and all that is 3.5mm...

It could all be coincedense offcourse , though it is quite probable your RCA,s are the problem , I'd check remote and power/ground cables , check if all the cables are correctly separated and check if all is free of any damage , check if the amps aren't making ground on the chassis and if there is tape anywhere on the cables redo / make sure it is good isolating tape , better yet that shrinking hose (no clue what it is called in english, maybe someone else could clarify) ,

you mentioned taking the maxxlink out of your car , were the cables thar ran to it taken out and/ or were new rca's run from that point if so how are the jack's protected ?

I had this problem before. got rid of the rca's and got some kicker rca's still no fix went from 2 8 guage grounds to 1 1/0 guage ground to the frame noise was gone bad ground = cause of the noise just my .02.
