[QUOTE="Swinger Vic, post: 7492689, member: 573963"] Although I have no direct experience with active... 1. To add more midbass you need a speaker to drive lower, usually a larger speaker OR a better built speaker. Lowest price to stay in your range is a larger speaker 7-8 inch. Initial thoughts are the Dayton 180 mid or Silver Flute mid for price. Both would add a little more midbass but easily improved in an enclosure. 2. I would recommend other speakers for power such as the Vifa dual ring tweeter, lower Fs/crossover, louder (raises the soundstage), good off axis response and the LPG metal which are a little harsher but I found them to be copies of Diamond in my opinion. 3. Even the best home audio speaker still uses complex (expensive) passive system (and enclosure). Active you will have more adjustment opportunities. Going active, I say aftermarket speakers. Speakers will be in your budget, pod not so, or look into DIY pod [/QUOTE]
