[QUOTE="Jcsaudio, post: 8626804, member: 673752"] What LosIsATool said plus you will need a $100 microphone with REW to use REW correctly. Those JL components are a well engineered matched set and although running active with the right tune (that will take you hours and hours) can sound better, chances are you wont improve on JL engineering much. Where active has an advantage assuming you cannot bi amp through the passive X-over is being able to time align and EQ each driver separately. If you put the crossovers close to your amplifiers than it should be easy to try both with the wires right there. [/QUOTE]
