Foam Baffles

I used the XTC foam baffles in the doors (6.5" speakers) on a RX7 I used to have. They did a wonderful job eliminating excessive speaker travel resulting from the lack of a stock enclosure. While the bass produced with those enclosures was tighter and cleaner, it was not nearly as loud as without the baffles. Also, the power requirement to get bass from the speakers increased dramatically. Given the inherent inability of a 4" cone to produce bass, I suspect they would not provide much benefit in the stock 9000 dash location.
