I've seen this before, but it was the amp that squealed. Wiggle the ground wire and see if you get a change. The amp could have a bad internal ground- intermittent solder connection that would cause this.

My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.

When your cap smoked, was it charged? Caps do go bad and tend to send voltage back to your battery which will cause the battery to overcharge and eventually burn out.

Do it right the first time
