[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 780197, member: 555320"] Well...apparently either I don't understand fully what you wish to do, or you don't fully understand what an active setup is. When running an active setup, you are using an external electronic crossover of some sort (be it a whole different piece of equipment, or using the crossovers built into the headunit) to create the crossover points for the speakers. So, you'd use the [I]active[/I] crossover to highpass the tweeters, and bandpass (highpass and lowpass) the mids. In a setup like this, an active crossover setup, there are no passives used. This is where the confusion apparently is [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] You say you want to run active, which would entail [B]not[/B] using any passive crossovers.....hence the reason I said you could ditch the passive crossover and run them in an active setup like you have mentioned you wish to do a few times now.
