[QUOTE="katodevin, post: 4120935, member: 572271"] LaserRed38: Yup, Focals are gone, didn't take the time to yank them out of the old car before trading it in. You saying that you didn't like the Access series so much is a bit exciting, since if I was happy with it, I can't imagine how happy I'll be with something better. Which model CDT are you running right now? As for the cleansweep, or other processing units, its something I'd really like to stay away from. I already have the 800prs, and I've been extremely happy with it and its flexability. The time delay functions and the BBE feature have been particularly impressive to me, as I usually ignore all types of audio processing. I still ignore the loudness and compression settings though. While the cleansweep and others may be nice, I don't think that they are a full replacement for a full-on SQ deck. I'm running a 12 inch type-r in a sealed cube with poly fill in it. I don't listen to heavy bass stuff much, and have been very happy with it. The box may be a bit undersized for the speaker, but like I said, I don't need anything boomy. As for the passive vs active dillema. Right now, I'm leaning a bit towards staying passive. Against most of the audiophiles here, I enjoy having a LITTLE rear fill, and I do have passengers in my car sometime. I do not want to lose my ability to fade foward to back, or have to run no speakers in the rear. Having a 3 way system is incredibly enticing, and something that I've heavily thought of, but it seems a bit of a large undertaking that I don't have the time for. I'll def get in touch with that Hertz dealer you listed. Appreciate the advice a lot. [/QUOTE]
