ive gotten new rca's still same thing. and i heard that a ground loop isolator muffs your amp. makes the buzz go away but also a great amout of your speaker sound.

Unplug the RCA cables from the amp, turn system on (obviously there will be no music) and see if the whine is still there. If it is, ground loop isolator won't help. In that case consider the battery and the main power and ground wires under the hood.

Some of them distort the sound but the better ones don't.
