[QUOTE="Alter Ego Trip, post: 6176544, member: 612004"] I will do some research on them. I have heard some negative's on the Morel's Tweeter?? (muddy?) To clarify; it would be easier to find out for myself if I lived somewhere that had many different brands to demo. Unfortunately I live in BFE and the only option I have is a couple brands hung on a board at my local B&M, hence purchasing the Alpine's. When building my HT I had to rely on a lot of people's opinions as to a good recommendation for speakers. I actually find it kind of funny as the speakers I am running in my theater are on the brighter side, whereas in my car I perfer a warmer more laid back sound. It might have something to do with there being many more uncontrolled reflections in my car, whereas my theater is heavily dampened. I have heard from a few people, they actually prefer the Ref's to the Pro's. Not sure why. My local B&M doesn't stock the pro's though so I can't comment. Excuse my ignorance, I'm a HT nut but fairly new to a well tuned CA system. What advantage would going active present over my current setup? I agree that different xovers and tuning will improve the nature of the soundstage, but the inherent sonic thumbprint if you will, would still be the dominating factor would it not? [/QUOTE]
