new door speaker problem after installing v4000xd on 4 12's

[thur5d4yf4n 10+ year member]

Here's what I have

2001 Silverado

Pioneer deck (rca's ran to amp, no converter boxes or shit like that)

Infinity components (not amped)

V4000xd

RE SE 12 x4

Yellow top, zero gauge, big 3

After installing all of this, I noticed at high volume my door speakers distort when the bass hits. Sometimes, it seems like they even lose complete volume they are so quiet. On higher bass notes where the mids and highs aren't as drowned out by the bass, the door speakers crackle and distort like crazy. What could cause this? Do i need to buy an amp for my door speakers?

The power switches for the doors are noisy as it is. I gotta do something about my 04...lol

Anyway power em up some more and do some door treatments. Deadening and such.

You could probably cut out some of the low lows with the amp also.

you need an amp for your comps.

You need new comps. Infinitiy sucks balls.

New amp new comps, look at CDTs.
