[QUOTE="bass_lover1, post: 4057124, member: 555256"] Well said. My first active setup consisted of my Nak CD400 for signal, then a Next VRz4.400 for amplification which had the built in x-overs that I needed, however it only had a 12 db/oct slope. The setup was nice and clean, but I didn't have TA nor a respectable EQ, plus if I wanted to play with the x-overs I had to do so in my driveway because the amp was in the trunk and made adjusting on the fly dangerous. I eventually swapped out to a Pioneer 880PRS which offered me TA, a 16 Band EQ, and x-overs that I needed, plus with adjustable slopes. It's not difficult to run active, but remember that it will take a bit more fiddling while active than it would if you were to just run passive components. My biggest reason for going active in the first place was I couldn't find a well priced respectable component set, but active allows you to purchase the raw drivers, and your options are pretty much limitless.
