[QUOTE="Beat_Dominator, post: 3130564, member: 560107"] Fairly sure you cannot run it off of the Head unit's amps, as the 3-way mode is for the amp pre-outs. The internal x-overs in the 7100 control the pre-outs but not the signal comming out of the internal amp in other words. You are right in that low+high on the mids is bandpass x-over. Yes and no. You are right in that you aren't using EVERY feature of the 7100, but you really aren't sacrificing too much. Focal pays engineers good money to do a crap load of testing to create a passive x-over that seamlessly matches the mid woofer to the tweeter. If you were to go out and buy some Seas mids or Dynaudios or something, but wanted to keep the tweeter....then maybe you'd want to get a small amp for the tweeters and run the active 3-way setup.
