Default hissing noise from speakers when horn is blown

Hi Gurus,
There is a hissing noise from the rear speakers whenever I blow the horn. Any idea why this is happening?

it is due to the grounding issue...the culprit can be the wiring method , RCA , and placement of wires.

Is the noise coming while playing a CD or FM player? I am getting noise with horn from speakers when I play FM, and particulary one station.

Even I had the same problem of hissing from the tweeters on honking, however it was rectified on fixing of a cut out by the Audio guy.

LBM, I have front tweeters (no speakers) connected to HU. Rear speakers connected (thru RCA) CS 60.4 amp and a 8" sub also connected to the same amp (bridged mode with Y splitter)
