Distortion / Static at Low Vol with BOSE and upgraded Spkrs

Well, i upgraded all my speakers in my 2004 G35 to Infinity Kappas (including adding dynamat to all four doors), and although the sound is better, i'm finding i'm getting static / distortion on the front left door speaker at low volume levels?

Any ideas on what is causing this. I'm going to first check to see if all my connections are good, but at this point, i don't suspect that. Problem seems to go away when the signal gets stronger (volume increases)

Could it be the stock amp is just not putting enough juice out to make my speakers happy???

Thanks

I would first make sure the connection is good and tight.

10 bucks says you didnt match the factory ohm to the new speakers...you can't just change out speakers on the stock system and expect it to have the same volume, you went to a higher ohm on the new speakers...get a new amp to power them
