Only adding this, not to start an argument, but to let others know, if you are looking to step up in the game, simply buying what's offered out there as a "package" really limits your options.

I'm an active-crossed DIY kinda guy.
Allow me to clarify, I to run active and completely agree you can get great sound with mixing drivers. however mixing and matching drivers with a passive system with pre set oct and crossovers is not the same. There are some crossovers out there that allow you to change things such as the one that comes with focal utopias. Lower end crossovers however I think he's asking for trouble.
