[QUOTE="Jroo, post: 8280820, member: 574112"] I have tried active one or two times. Like you, I didnt want to do a lot of tuning and didnt have a head unit with T/A. In one car all I did was keep the drivers in the same spots and add an amp for the midbass. It sounded night and day different. The high end was much more controlled. I just started with the same xover point that was in the passive that I ditched. If you went active and it sounds worse, something else is going on. Check phase, x over points, just play with it. You didnt list the equipment but without tuning it should sound as good or better than the passive. [/QUOTE]
