Another thing I did was started to play with the EQ on my iPhone. Setting the phone to different EQ’s I notice a big difference and it’s much much better. I listen to different types of music: hard rock, classic rock, older rap and country... so I can’t find that happy medium. So far “loudness, rock or RB” EQ on the phone seem to give me what I want. I thought maybe the dsr1 would do it all for me, but I don’t think it will.

Just need tk wait for a marine grade alternative replacement. I can’t justify the Sony unit without it being marine grade as I ride in all conditions.
Firemedic,
Looking at the Rockford manual the EQ level adjusts only the high frequencies at a set value of 12.5 KHZ, it shouldn’t gain you any boost in the midrange at all, here is the manual specs. Attached above, midrange would be from say 100hz to 5000hz not 12500.

I fully understand that, took the wording from the manual. By adjusting the punch EQ, I do hear midbass. Not a lot but it’s there.
