[QUOTE="DejaWiz, post: 3439545, member: 569941"] I have a set of SPX-177R's. I biamped them with 2x80wrms to the mids and 2x40wrms to the tweeters. The clarity is uncanny. One drawback is that the mids are somewhat laid-back and non-aggressive unless you can feed them a good clean 150-200w rms. I probably wouldn't send that much power for the crossover to throw to the mids and tweets in single-amp mode, as I've read (albeit rare) about some occurrences of the tweeter protection circuit getting so hot that it will actually melt/warp the side of the crossover. If you have that kind of power to work with in the first place and are looking for aggressive midbass, then the RSd's would be a great choice for the money. [/QUOTE]
