Another benefit to actively crossing over is that amplifier efficiency is DRASTICALLY increased. Since there are no passive parts to "suck up" and waste power between the amp and speaker, the system can play louder with less work on the amps' part. Sound quality ( when properly set up ) is also much better. In other words, active bi / tri / quad amping IS the way to go if you have the time, patience and know how. Sean
