i too had the squealing gutted pig brake syndrome and
after careful bedding, swapping pads, etc... the thing
that work was taking the rotor off completely and
giving the hub flange a very good cleaning with a wire
brush and a layer of copper-based grease (holds off
corrosion making rotor replacement easier later on) to
ensure that the rotor seats absolutely flush against
the hub flange...

the cause of the vibration wasn't the pads at all...
it was the rotors vibrating at a very high frequency
under braking conditions... HTH
