[QUOTE="SSS 18734, post: 6223070, member: 559710"] It really depends on the car you're working with and the location you want to mount them in. Some are easier than others. I just got done with my first 3-way active setup (without ever trying active 2-way before) in my truck and it turned out quite well. I haven't tuned it (other than level-matching the speakers) and it already brings out an entirely new level of clarity and imaging to my front stage. Granted, I put the mids and tweeters on axis on my dash, so I wouldn't HAVE to do a lot of tuning to get the imaging right. I also really like the tremendous increase in midbass that a three way active setup brings. I'm running no sub right now and am perfectly happy with the way the music sounds on rock. Rap obviously leaves something to be desired, but my Peerless SLS's can actually produce a clearly audible 30 hz tone [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] Go with DIY components from partsexpress/madisound if you'd like to save some money and are willing to go active!
