Default Popping Noise

Got amp and speakers installed. RF300x2 and biketronics speakers. Everything working fine (besides power point. But that's a separate issue.) Just noticed when I shut bike down I hear two small pops that seem to be coming from right speaker. I assume I've got a bad connection somewhere but before I pull everything apart figured I'd see if there might be another reason

Are you using the high level inputs? If so, make sure you are not using a remote turn on wire also.

Where do you have it grounded? Rockford Fosgate recommends running the ground directly to the battery.

Yes to high level and grounded through a distro block back to the battery.
