[QUOTE="HitManSE, post: 2857892, member: 549624"] Look at the dates they were posted. The setup sounds great as is, however the midbass' dip pretty low in the frequency range. A lot lower then id like them to. I dont have an EQ, and since its running off a passive I cant exactly control that too well either. In other words, I dont exactly need my front stage dipping down to 30hz. This set does that, and it hinders the ability to turn the volume up more due to distortion. Though its cool that they can dip that low, id much rather have the sub handle anything below 60hz. That would not only sound better since the midbass's wouldnt distort at a lower volume, but allow me to crank up the volume some more without distortion. That is what I was referring to when I said. Thats the real crutch when it comes to a passive setup IMO, especially this one. Though it sounds great, Id personally prefer running this set active if you really want to see what this comp set could do. I would also add a 4" lotus or something up to par with the set to free up the midbass & tweeter to the frequencies they like as well. What frequencies, well that would probably take a while to get dead on so id be playing with it for a while. I would start by setting 60hz and under to the sub, 60-250ish to the midbass's, 250-3.0khz for the mids, and 3.0khz on up for the tweeters and work on it from there on. [/QUOTE]
