If I had it to do all over again without a DSP I probably would have preferred another type of speaker. My choices were a little limited though because I want to stick with marine rated speakers. I can ride my nekkid bikes just fine and stay dry but as soon as I take off on the Geezer Glide a monsoon will drop on me out of nowhere.

Agree with this. The Motos are by far the best speaker I’ve put in my lowers but only because of the DSP. If I was running then straight off an amp without the additional control, I’d probably not like them near as much. With the dsp however and some time with a spectrum analyzer, I think they’re freakin amazing, especially for what you pay for them.

I'm sure if I looked into proper tuning mine would sound better. I have heard that sometimes you can use a phone app to tune speakers. Are you aware of any videos that detail this method while using a DSP?
