[QUOTE="amr952, post: 1656160, member: 562383"] I have a quick question for some of you pros out there. I bought a set of CDT CL-62s a while back thinking I was just going to stick to passive, but I recently picked up a CD8455 so I am hoping to try out an active setup. What I wanted to know is how do you pick what crossover points you use and what slopes to use. What I have seen by reading around is ppl usually go about 100hz up to somewhere between 2.5 and 4khz on the mid, and then from 2.5 to 4k up on the tweet. So how do you pick between 2.5 and 4 or in between and do you overlap the tweet and mid. If the speakers that I have now wiill not sound being used in an active setup, than I will buy something better. I just wanted to try this out with what I had first. If I need better speakers feel free to post your opinions. I would really like some good info about this stuff, so feel free to post up some links to sites where I can learn more or just give me your opinion. Thanks for your help in advance. [/QUOTE]
