Default Radio-Amplifier Issue?

I have stock radio in my 02 classic. Attached is a RadioSound 55X4 amp. The original amp was making clicking sounds in the right channel so I paid $125 to the company for a replacement. No clicking in the right channel but occasionally you will hear the speakers slightly pop. Not ear bleeding but it will crack every now and again. Back to the original amp. When you would turn the bike on, you would hear speaker hum as soon as you turned on the bike. Like the sound of the fuel injection system. New amp. That sound is gone but still cracks during play. So do you think it's the amp or can it be the radio? Anyone have experience with this? Thanks for any help.

Can't answer your question other than to suggest you call Radio Sound, the vendor, @ (502) 267-6768, and ask for customer service. IIRC you'll speak to John who is very knowledgeable and helpful.
