I just remebered that the 9015 (the new one) has 4.5V preamps, does that make a difference?

What if I ran the sound off of the speaker wired through a line level converter and back to RCAs, would that eliminate the noise?

Possibly so, but it would be better to just ground the rca shields. You wouldn't have to buy anything, and you'd have less distortion.
My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.

Grounding the RCAs MAKES THE NOISE LOUDER! I even tried slitting the jackets and braiding into them as one guy  on the forum suggested.  The only thing I haven't tried is to ground them at the amp too.

The line level converter worked great! No noise, the system sounds good. Probably lucky that the new indash is top of the line so I didn't lose any sound quality. For the record, I used a RAC OEM-2 converter.
