[QUOTE="ejschultz, post: 7049389, member: 603800"] Check out my build log in my sig. You'll see everything I did. @audioholic Alright, so I didn't mean to imply that using passive setups will give the same output as an active setup with everything being equal. Like I said before, in most installs I've done and in most I've seen, the amps have more power to offer than what the speakers can handle. I've chosen amps for all of my systems (at least for my front stages) to have a little more power than for what my speakers are rated. This way I have a little bit of headroom. I know there have been some debates on here about headroom and weather or not it's necessary. I don't know exactly how I feel about it, but I do choose my amps accordingly. Now, with your assumption, you are correct. With all else equal, the active system will provide a slight increase in output. With my assumption, I am correct. I see your side; see mine. I'm done "back pedaling". From your prospective, yes, I was incorrect. [/QUOTE]
