Don't put rears in, if you can afford decent 3ways get them, and go active if you understand what youre doing. Since you didn't post a price, I'll assume you're rich, get a set of morel elate's and youll be the hottest thing in egypt

You cannot go active with a 3 way front stage with that deck. 3 way active means tweeter/midbass/sub. You would need a 4 way active processor and they are very limited and expensive.

^ I'm 90% sure you can, but you wouldn't have a sub output.

I expected CDA-9887 has built-in active cross over for 3-way

4-way active cross over for 3-way.!! I don't understand that.

Sorry , I didn't get you, may you please explain

Well yes you could do that if the lowpass will go high enough and then your stuck using the subsonic if its adjustable.

But even then like you said you will not have a sub preout

you cant run an active 3 way front setup with that deck, i know, i have it

the fronts run the tweets, the rears run the mid and the sub runs the sub

theres no mid bass channels

get some Dyns and a big 4 channel amp

3 up front and 1 for the sub, thats 4

I will try 3-way on y current system.

For passive I have 3 choices , Alpine SPX-17PRO , Pioneer PRS and Alpine SPX-17REF

I could decide due to too many different reviews.

I don't wanna compare between them in general , I want to compare based on the HU is CDA-9887
