Suggestions please - 6.5" comps in the $700-$1300 range.

[QUOTE="WheresTheButta, post: 5961159, member: 559748"] *fyi* I listed $700-$1300 as my budget because that's the amount of $ I've got. If I can find a set that will perform the way I want for less, that's great. I absolutely need the woofers to be 6.5" though. I am using the factory locations, no compromises on that. If I knew how to set up / manage an active system, and it honestly took up less space I would consider it. If I did that, however, I'd still have the $700-$1300 bottom line. I'm thinking it would be harder to budget an amp, an active xover/equalizer and speakers on top of it all for the same price. Before I make any decisions, I'll ask the question a few people seem to be pushing me toward: Would an active setup with a $700-$1300 budget outperform a set of passive comps of equal value? If so, would it be such a drastic difference that it would justify me investing the time/energy learning how to set it up / tune it properly, in addition to running new wires? If the answer is yes, and an active setup for the same price will get louder and be more detailed, I will need suggestions on that. 2-way sets with 6.5" woofers only pls. [/QUOTE]
