[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 789714, member: 555320"] Yes. 2ohm driver on a crossover designed for a 4ohm driver will cut the crossover frequency in half among other things. Not good. Well, they are capable of playing pretty cleanly up to 5khz according to RE. IIRC, in the comp set they were going to be crossed over at like 4.2kzh (I think). Anyways, it's just something you will have to experiment with, as it depends on the acoustics of your vehicle aswell (since you are going active, that's one of the advantages....being able to play with the xover point for best in-car response). If you really really wanted to go passive, RE may be able to tell you what crossover components to use to acheive best results with the XXX mids and RE tweeters. If you are handy with soldering skills, you may be able to just remove the components from the midwoofer section of the RE xovers and replace them with the correct values. Harder than it sounds, but may still work. [/QUOTE]
