[QUOTE="zako, post: 7928678, member: 629735"] I think you mean Hybrid Audio Imagine. I wasn't impressed with their tweeters when running the stock crossover setup in component mode. The stock crossover "network" uses a first order high pass filter with a 6dB slope on the tweeter, allowing the tweeter to play a bit too much of upper midrange frequencies. I felt like the speakers sound a bit fatiguing at higher volume level because of this. Right now I run this active using 2nd order slopes on mid and tweeter at 6.3KHz, and they sound all right with this setup. A bit too laid back for my taste, but that can be fixed with eq. This is why I didn't recommend the HAT speakers in the component recommendations above. If the goal is to use HAT speakers as components with the supplied crossover network, the cheapest honest to god option would be HAT Unity, but I assume that's out of OP's budget. Someone recommended Polk db speakers, and they're should be decent for money too. [/QUOTE]
