ARC Audio MX-1 or MX-3

Or DXE if you have $1500 to spend. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

i asked this at SIn. passives will usually be custom. i thought of using image dynamixs x2 with nx30 tweets, but i just now got ahold of a cd1e horn set.

The passives that come with the set should be fine. They work with any ohm load you throw at it. At least, that's what I was told from ID when I emailed them about this last fall //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

You were told wrong. Changing speaker impedance will change the requirements for the passive xover. You determine the right components to use in the passive based on speaker impedance (and desired xover point/slope). In other words, buy a comp set with 4ohm speakers, then replace the mids with the 2ohm xxx's, and your xover point will be drastically (and negatively) affected. Unless you want to make the passive yourself, or find a comp set that uses 2ohm drivers (but then your horns wont match), you are gonna really need to go active.
