It might, but why get one if switching grounds could work? At the same time, say you get one and it doesnt work? Noise can come from a few places in your system. Sometimes you can get it from amp grounds, antennas, EQs, factory wire harnesses, and alternators just to name a few.

recheck all grounds, make sure they're good.

Bro...I had the EXACT same problem, You have to give a more specific decription of your setup.

I Have comps in front coax in back and an amp powering them, the noise issue was fixed after installing a noise filter on the amp.

Its a bad ground, before you go spending money on filters and what not, clean your grounds out.. sand them down and make sure its metal against metal.
