that said changing the HU might fix the problem..
if that dosen't work (many decks/amps are prone to noise!) or you don't feel like buying a new deck I suggest you give an isolation transformer another look...
if you don't want to go that route there are several ways to skin the same cat... infact the best fix IMO is to go with an isolated supply for your deck.....

When I got whine, it usually was because some part of the amplifier or EQ was touching or in contact through screws to the vehicule chassis.
Make sure your amp doesnt touch any metal part of the car, and that no screws that touch your amp also touch any metal on the car.

It is the Pioneer head unit unfortunately. Really **** poor circuit design and has been for over 20 years. You can try attaching a new ground wire to the shield of the rca cables at the cd player. This may solve the problem for you but in my opinion it is still a bandaid. If it were me, it would be a totally different brand cd player.
