Do I need a bigger amp?

I replaced my CDR220 with a new double DIN head unit. Now, with the top down (of course) it seems like I've always got the volume close to the top end; for quieter music there's not enough with the volume at max.

Is there something in a setup that I'm missing or is the Porsche amp just too small? The new HU is actually pushing out more watts than the 220...

Head unit: Kenwood DDX5706S DDIN
Amp: 6x40W from 996 cabrio
Dash speakers: Hertz ECX100.5 4" 4ohm coax
Rear speakers: retrofit kit of four 3.5" 4ohm coax
Door speakers: original 2ohms
