Default alternator keeps dying

Ok here is the story, about 6 months ago my alternator died (the volts were sitting right down and it sent interference through the speakers), i had the alternator rebuilt and everything was sweet again then after about 2 months it started doing the same thing (we thought it could be the stereo causing it) and they rebuilt it again under warranty, but now its done it again but i havnt been running the stereo in the car for around a month

Symtoms: Alternator makes a whiny noise, volt guage sitting right down but goes up a little when im driving, when a stereo is hooked up makes a squeeling noise through the speakers(more than likley because the rca's are near the power wire).

What could be going on??? :

By the way the first 2 times the auto elec said it was the regulator that had died
