Go Active Crossover or Upgrade existing XOs?

It was recently suggested to me that rather than doing a crossover upgrade

I look into an active crossover for my Tannoy FSMs. Anyone experienced enough

to guide me? What advantages does active provide?

Even if you get the crossover points and slopes correct, there are other considerations to take into account, that active crossovers are unable to account for.

Baffle step, compensating for dips and peaks in individual driver responses, compensating for impedance, etc, etc, are a few issues.

Watch this vid by speaker design wiz, Danny Ritchie. He explains the problems.

compensating for dips and peaks in individual driver responses,

You can do this with passive (complex process) or with digital xover (easy)

compensating for impedance,

This to my knowledge can be corrected only owith passive

@simonmoon I agree with you, and I have a preference for well designed and engineered passive crossovers, when you go with digital although easier you start adding variables (emi/rfi, ripple noise, fir filters etc) which for sure will alter the sound
