[QUOTE="dsw1204, post: 8525973, member: 663807"] I am not quite sure what you mean, Jeff (are you actually a chef?). Do you mean ditch the 6x9s and go active (which I am currently not)? I have heard that going active will increase how loud my system will be, I guess because the power of the amp (60W RMS) would be driving each driver instead of each channel, right? But, that just increases the volume and that is not necessarily SQ, right? I would like to try and go active, but I have no DSP and my amp nor my head unit has the crossover abilities to go active. And, besides, I am so confused and have so many questions about going active that, well, I just haven't. I would love to "watch magic happen" (or maybe more correctly "listen to magic happening", LOL), it just is going to take a little time for that to happen. I do plan on ditching the 6x9s when I get my sub, but I do not know what you are referring to when you say "put the power you were putting to the 6x9s into your front stage". The power I am putting into my 6x9s is the power that is coming out of each channel of my amp, which is 60 watts RMS. And, like I said before, if I move the fader to full up front, I do not notice any decrease in SQ whatsoever, but I would not say there is an increase in SQ when I do that. Boy, I've gone way off kilter here, haven't I. [/QUOTE]
