Set it with no accessories (radio, A/C) or anything like that. And set the idle where it should be.

The A/C SHOULD cause the idle to rise just a bit. At least it does on my car. Are you getting any check engine lights?

My 97 EJ does the same thing sometimes even with the air off it will drop to like 300 RPM and i can hardly hear the car. Usually after I cut the car off and back on it goes away. My buddies 99 does the same thing.
