distorted sound when turned up

[bbowerman]

I have a scdbta60 scosche radio it is a nice radio with bluetooth phone calling and such. I like the radio a lot but im not a big radio Ive always had fast vehicles with a decent radio well here lately Ive wanted better sound quality not like thousand dollar system quality but nice clear quality and i may add a small sub later on but right now i hear a distortion when my radio is turned up especially a song with any bass.

"Sound Output Mode: Stereo

Continuous Power / Channel Qty: 15 Watts x 4

Amplifier Output Details: 15 Watt - 4 Ohm - THD 1.0% - 14.4V DC - 4 channel(s)

that is my radio specs is that decent? seems like the watts may be low to me but i am unsure. I have the matching scosche speakers and the front "6.5" speakers get distorted with even the smallest amount of bass i keep the bass at -4 and it still happens sometimes. im wondering is it the radio or is it the speakers?
