Default Static with radio off...

I have a 2001 SS vert with a monsoon system. I noticed the R/F speaker was real distorted and figured it to be blown which I haven't gotten around to replacing. Now I notice static coming out of both the front and rear right speaker when the radio is off. It is not consistant but rather it seems to happen when I hit a bump. Has anyone run into this or have any idea what it could be?
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer...

Mine did that right before the monsoon amp caught on fire.

Apparently the amp isn't shutting off. I'm not entirely sure if it supposed to or not. I rarely have the head unit off, so I haven't noticed it on my 2002.

I am having this same issue - static from the left rear sail panel speaker after a bump, sometimes when I appy the brakes, someimes on a r/h turn - all with the radio off? I checked the wiring from the speaker to the harness under the dash but nothing apparent - any clues????
