Default ""HELP"" 2012 amp and speaker Install.

head unit. Factory with sync
amp , Infinity Kappa 54A
Speakers JBL 608c 6'5 Components

So I ordered some JBL608C components and using an older Infinity Kappa 54A amp. Went with the PAC AOEM-FRD24 so i can go run RCA's to the amp. After getting the fronts wired and hooked up Ive found that the sound isn't as clear as i thought it would be and sounds like a lot of distortion. just like the factory speakers but a lot louder. With the PAC AOEM-FRD24 I also noticed that you barely have to turn it up the signal level and it is loud with the stereo being on a 1/4 of the way up. Has anyone had issues like this

Yes you barely have to turn up the adjustments on the PAC and also on the speaker amp
