I come from a pretty decent audio background so here's the first thing that come to mind (i apologize if i didnt read enough into your audio builds).

With those speakers you listed you realistically need without a doubt active processing. I highly suggest AGAINST the JBL MS-8. I would go Audison Bitone, Pioneer DEX-P99RS (my personal favorite), or the Mosconi DSP 6to8 (i hear is pretty good). I have personally used all of these extensively except the new Mosconi one.

Having 8's and 10's (especially the w3) is kind of redundant IMHO. I'd highly suggest getting the biggest sub (cone size) you can fit. Having 8's and 6.5's is kind of redundant also IMHO. There's very little pickup an 8" can have in addition to a 6.5" that a correctly tuned/positioned subwoofer can't. Keep it simple!
As someone who has installed 3 of these, I disagree. I know the adjustments are limited with them however for a new person going active or even incorporating new speakers into a stock system they work well. Me personally, I will be running a mosconi 6to8 next year with my focal build. I do agree with any of the audio processors as they all have pros and cons.
