I have a faucet that squeals really load. The faucet screams every time the hot or cold is on high. This is the only faucet that happens. After some research, I think it is the stem or a ring or something.

Here is a video: https://youtu.be/ccdq30Bi0b0.

Are stems universal? How do I get to the stem/ring? I could use a point in the right direction.
 
I can't be sure. My first thought is that the knocking sound from the single valve is half the sound, and the sound "doubles" into a that noise when the second valve is open. Does the sound occur when you open the cold valve first? Are your supply tubes secure? How about the pipes coming in? Can you see any movement in them when the water is running?
