I have the 3.6, went to the James 1500 sub, and a 3-way Xover Marchand XM44, and ditched the passive. I crossed the bottom over at 80Hz, and can now adjust the low frequency to be better in the room. I have just started, but I am within 3db from 50Hz to 12.5k with a 4-5db bump at 100Hz. That is measured from the listening position, not at 1 " or 1 Meter in front of the speaker. The only to adjust in-room responses is having some type of EQ device. As a cost effective option, the passive is good, but the active gives so many more fine-tuning options, and the ROOM is "the final frontier" and ultimate challenge. How to keep a wife happy and a pair of ears equally happy.
Also, photos of your project would be helpful for others who need to go on this adventure. Jallen
