Going active and using an EQ

[jacko 10+ year member]

If I were to spend say $200-300 on an active crossover and 5-7 band EQ or a crossover/eq combo, would it be worth it in helping to even out my peaky freq response? Is this a night/day difference sort of thing or just something for seroius audiophiles? Are there good brands that I could find for much cheaper on Ebay? Between a peak at 30hz for a ported box, 45hz bass boost, passive crossover on my infinity ref comp's, and the crossing over of some frequencies between my comp's and subs due to amp settings, some songs with a very wide harmonic range are very interesting to listen to, to say the least. Thanks.
