[QUOTE="trumpet, post: 8434192, member: 628688"] In the most basic sense, yes, giving the mids and tweeters their own amplifier channels and using the amplifier's crossovers does count as running active. If you're going to that effort you might as well use a DSP, or at least a nice head unit, because the crossovers are only one step in the process of achieving good sound quality. If you just want to get loud get your back speakers upgraded and run all 4 channels the traditional way. You can get a CDT speaker package with front components and rear coaxials for $200. [/QUOTE]
