Possibly blown channel on the HU (or amp if that's what's powering them).

HU = Head Unit (the radio in the dash).

If it's BOSE, I am suprised that there are rear speakers in your car. I always thought Camaro's BOSE was just 2 front speakers, and a sub in the trunk. Also, using any speakers other than the factory BOSE may not work properly as each speaker has it's own amp (which is probably the cause of the crackling sound in your case).
