Kicker ZX amps and RS components

SMOKE
I hooked up the amp with one set of RCA's directly from the stock HU using PAC audio AOEM-NIS 2.
As soon as a turned on the ignition , the power indicator light went green, red, green, red, green, red, and then I heard a pop, I cut off the ignition and when I looked back at the amp there was smoke coming out of it!!!
I checked all my connections and it they were fine. I felt the amp and it did not feel hot so I cut the ignition on again and the amp worked great. On my amp it actually was able to play all five channels from one input from the stock HU.
I have since hooked up and Alpine ERA-G320 and I have Front , Rear, and Sub RCA's running to the amp and I don't have any issues.

OK so it turns out the "smoke" coming out of the amp had something to do with the electronic crossovers on the amp.
I had a continuing "hum" when the amp was on.
On Sunday this awful high pitched squeel came out of all my speakers from what I could tell. I had to disconnect the amp.
I put my old Alpine MRV-F405 and MRV-100M amps in tonight and they sound better anyway.
