RE: just got me stuff installed!!!
I think the shop is full of ****. Eclipse has been the best company to me hands down. I have had issues with 2-3 of their decks but the audio shop I dealt with always sent it in, and Eclipse always sent me back the next better model. It has been probably 4-5 years since my last exchange so maybe they have changed their ways but that is a big reason I stick with Eclipse.
As far as your RPM dependant noise....try unplugging just your ground cable. I have a feeling your amp will stay on and continue to play, though it will sound ****ty and don't do this at any kind of volume or for a long time. This means you have a ground loop. If it cuts off when you do this test, send the amp back because it most likely has a cold solder somewhere on the board. Did you get it new?

RE: just got me stuff installed!!!
I had similiar problem. After checking all power cables again, I found that my Fosgate RCA wire had a bad male end behing my head unit. I cut it out and spliced another male on. I wasn't going to replace an 18' wire buried under carpet and sh%t.
How about some capacitors and an isolator for another battery?
