Skullz Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Unless your willing and can afford to lose a few speakers in your learning curve than just use passive crossovers for now. Going active can and will take a long time to learn and master, the basics are the easy part, getting everything right is the tricky part that can take an incredibly long time. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broke_Audio_Addict Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Google must be broken today because there's been a ton of questions today that have been answered a million times before. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

I'm on my second active front stage. Never had an issue.
