I toyed with the idea of active CO and was seriously considering trying my hand at Linkwitz's DIY Orion speaker which is fully biamped (triamped???)and requires the builder to also construct an active CO/eq of Mr. Linkwitz's design...each side requires FOUR identical channels of amplification...however, that project requires one to commit a couple grand just to get started and is pretty involved technically...I still may at some point but want to explore the biamp concept in a decent passive system first...I have minimized my outlay with decent used gear...if I like the concept, I will likely segway (sic) from here...perhaps to one of the pro-sound actives that can be had on the cheap...
for any who are unfamiliar with the Orion, here is the link:

An amazing site and an amazing speaker (many rate it among the best available at any price) designed by a legendary figure in sound reproduction...
