Hearing your speakers without the doors deadened then hearing them with the doors deadened is like night and day. I got my rsds and installed them, sounded good but wasn't too impressed. I then deadened my doors and i was shocked, the midbass is incredible.

And to the person who is giving them 75 watts a side, you should double that. Make sure you set your gains correctly as well.

is there a way to set amplifier gain with dmm using an ipod? the cd player on my deck is broken so i use my ipod...what volume would i set my ipod to?

Conect it to your ready and play the test tone in your ipod and set your gains.

i dont own a set but alot of the owners say from new to break in they are like night and day. midbass comes when you deaden and when they break-in.

Treat your doors properly. This doesn't just mean deadening.

Also, keep in mind that one person's "midbass pounds" might be another's "midbass sucks". In other words, it's relative.

I was going to pick-up the RSD's (after trying to find something in the $200 range and better then the RSD's but no luck). Though had a few questions wondering if someone could clear up for me.

I have a 5 channel amp it's rated 4x130 1x400 @ 4ohms or 3x400 @ 4 ohms. (don't want to get into actual power since i cannot test for that or wouldn't even know how) I've been told I should run them active but would this entail me having to buy an external X-over if my HU can only go up to 125hz on the HPF? also i am not really experienced setting all that up would it be alot more work or overly difficult to figure out how to set it up?

I was toying with the idea to run my amp bridge for the more power. (Though I haven't come across any speaker in the price range I could spend that would handle that much power). So if I did run the RSD's passive and had the amp bridge am I correct to assume I would have to have the gains pretty low as too not send too much power to them and blow them up? or is mine line of thinking all wrong?
