Default Noisy brakes

I have a completely new brake system with less than 1000 miles. They have started to squeel. The mechanic who installed them said everything looks good, and that it's just the nature of semi-metallic pads.

Can anyone recommend some pads that will be quiet?

Vette Brakes and Products. Use the link at the top of the C-3 forum page to find out about your discount. I put the organic pads on my rear brakes only . No more squeeling brakes.
