In all reality, it isn't much of an issue. The 4 ohm midwoofer is more efficient than the factory midbass. There is a slight loss of midbass, but the Rainbow's are much more accurate and detailed. The tweeters have in-line passive crossovers installed to both attenuate, and protect the tweeters from becomming to harsh, which really helps to even out the response. This way, you do end up with a slight boost in response from the tweeters, which we really feel is necessary to gain a well balanced output from your stereo.
