[QUOTE="gstokes, post: 8280704, member: 660947"] I went from Coaxials to an active system with raw drivers and now going back to my original plan of component set with passive crossover, going active may have it's advantages but convenience and ease of tuning isn't one of them. I just didn't like the delay, the sound was all over the place with highs in front of me and mids beside me and lows behind me and i realized real quickly the only way to make it sound right was with a DSP, before i throw good money after bad i will just start over and go back to my original plan of using a matched component set with passive crossover and save myself a whole bunch of money in the process. It was a fun experiment that i enjoyed and learned quite a bit from, i learned some things are just out of my league and best left to the professionals. I'm not saying that you shouldn't try it, just saying it's not for me.. [/QUOTE]
