You're probably hearing the cd spinning. My deck does this, but I don't keep the volume down all the way. Or is the sound coming through the speakers?

My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.

Turning down your gain might help.

If it's engine noise (pitch varies with engine RMP) it is either ground-related or you have a noisy ignition system. If it's a steady sound no matter what the engine is doing (or if it's there with the engine off) it is an issue in your equipment or setup. Could be a bad HU, RCA cables, speaker wires, amplifier, or a setup issue like too high gain setting or a ground loop between HU and amp. You have lots of trouble shooting ahead of you.
