Default Car Stereo: Rapid Clicking Sound

I've troubleshooted the buzzing issue I had earlier, but now there is a rapid clicking sound from the speakers in the same conditions: 0 volume, aftermarket HU, and factory amp. It's quiet enough to be masked under normal music listening conditions. Any ideas as to what this is?

Ground loop isolators mask it and further quiet it, but it's faintly there. I'm looking for a permanent solution. Could it be something with the aftermarket HU and amp conflicting?

BUMP.

I've given up on trying to solve this thing. The best info on the matter I've gotten is that the ES300s are notorious for aftermarket head unit and factory amplifier conflict. For all those experiencing this problem: buy a ground loop isolator.

The following is a link to a decent, cheap, and 4-channel isolator:
