[QUOTE="Fast1one, post: 4281940, member: 567387"] I mentioned before the Memphis is probably your best bet for the price... As far as your questions, the crossover point is the -3db point. Depending on the crossover, you can over and under lap the crossover points. For example, you can cross over the mids at 4khz and the tweets at 3.5khz, which is great because you can tailer the crossover points to your speakers and vehicle... I wouldn't worry too much about slopes just yet, so long as they are atleast 12db/octave (like the passives). Simply put, you aren't going to have very many options until you buy an active capable deck. For example, the Memphis has fixed slopes of 18db/octave for the mids/highs and 24db for the subwoofer...
