[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8672460, member: 650438"] no kenwoods can do active. You can do it at the amp if your amp has a midrange low pass or bandpass filter that goes up to 5000hz but its really not advisable because you are locked in the slope and cant change it. Active means powering a woofer and tweeter separately and you get to assign the crossover point vs the cookie cutter point that may or may not work with your vehicle acoustics/listening preferences. When you get to assign your own crossover point, you can use that to tame harsh peaks caused by the vehicle's acoustics along with balancing out the levels properly and you can achieve a perfect blend between midrange tweeter and subwoofer. You can also time align each mid and tweet individually because they are not the same distance from eachother and with time alignment, all the frequencies hit your ears the same time which creates a virtual soundstage, you literally see the artist perform in real life on your dash through sound. Tats how true sound quality is attained. [/QUOTE]
