How good is the Bass?

Any rap/hip hop listeners out there know that Bass is important. I'm wondering how good the bass system is on the RDX speaker system. Both on the normal speaker system and on the premium speaker system with the tech package. If you crank the bass all the way up, how is it? do the mirror shake or is it pretty weak?

It is one of the best factory sound systems I have heard. Bass is very decent, but of course could be better. Yes the mirrors vibrate so much that you can't look at them and tell what you are looking at when the bass is cranking.

You're best bet though is to take a CD with your own music along for your test drive and crank it up and see for yourself.

Mirror shake happens, but more importantly for me is that the bass doesn't "buzz" at the high levels with which I listen to R&B/Hip-hop. I also typically set my bass to +1 or +2.

I haven't had the balls to crank it yet. I keep it about 23-25 but I have to say it's the best factory system I have ever heard. There's no need to upgrade the system at all.

Bass

I didn't really compare the 360 W on Base vs 410 W on Tech. Those who tested both, do you really feel the different ? I mean for normal circumstances, I guess most of time, we don't even need 200W, right ? unless you are listensing to rock music all the time
