"popping" when switching sources is usually an indication of a bad ground or a defective head unit. Pioneers are notorious for haveing bad ground circuits in their head units. One way you might be able to minimize this is to run a new dedicated ground for the HU to the car's chassis: don't use the factory ground wire in the dash.

How'd you buy a head unit without an owner's manual?

I agree with Dyohn, Pioneer is notorious for bad ground circuits. Run a new ground wire and see what happens.
