Radio makes battery go dead

Hi, for the past year I have had the radio fuse out of my car, otherwise my battery goes dead within 30 hours of the car not being driven. I know when the car is turned off every 20mins or so, I hear a very loud popping sound from the speakers or radio, and then its quiet. Any idea how to isolate the problem further? I'd like to buy a new head unit, but it might be speakers or something else.
The auto electricians (x2 different companies), sisters husband and mechanics tell me I'm wrong and I couldn't possibly know, but within 2 days of re-inserting the radio fuse, my battery is on charge tonight. I've gone a year without a flat battery... Any help is muchly appreciated!
