[QUOTE="Raven, post: 1083008, member: 558368"] Well, I personally feel that if you can hear a difference between the two, it's time to either rebuild your passive ones or get a new active one. Both have their pros and cons. Active is vulnerable to alt whine, passive waste more power, etc. Depending on what you're doing, an active crossover is probably best. Once you've made your passive crossovers, there's no adjusting them. That little (hah!) bit of freedom is what would drive me to go active.
