Quick 880prs question

[POLKAT 10+ year member]

I am pretty set on getting a Pioneer Premier 880prs. I have noticed that people on here have mentioned using this head unit in an active setup because of the 3-way crossover. I am starting to think that I may want to go active in the future but I noticed that the highest crossover point that the 880prs goes up to is 200hz. (according to Pioneer's web site). Needless to say, thats not gonna be a high enough hpf for the tweeters and too low a lpf for the mids. Am I missing something? Do the crossover points actually go higher than that? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

Those crossover frequencies are for the (2-way) STD (standard) mode operation. In NW (network) mode you have alot more crossover frequencies to choose from. In that mode you can choose from 1.25khz all the way up to 12.5khz.

Go to the pioneer website and download the pdf. owners manual and look at page 13. That page shows you the selectable high pass for the tweets, high and low pass (bandpass) for the mids and low pass for the sub. Hope that helps you in your decision making.
