[QUOTE="affan66, post: 44378, member: 65"] Van, Not sure lah. The Valeraines are not bad after all after a week of running in. The tweets are beginning to sound softer now. However, I believe the designer of the Vals wanted users to fully utilize its active crossover and not use anything else because the whole system was constructed based on the tolerances set. For example, while running active from my own HU, the sound is quite good. But, I can't really push it. On some songs I can hear that the sound is a bit loose, especially in the mid-bass. Looks like the midbass was constructed to only work to a certain limit and has to roll-off abruptly, thus the slope set at 24db on the supplied crossover. I had set mine on 12db but I can hear the sound looser on certain songs in the midbass range. The tweeters also felt the same. 24db slope again had to be used if I wanted to get decent sound. Overall, this is a good performer, especially for the price. What's my verdict? I am going to try out the Eaton Pros next week. Anybody want to try out these Valeraines? It's selling at RM599 and had only been used for a week (except for the crossover which is not used in my setup). Make an offer. Be warned, you need to have at least 4 channels to run this system (50Watts RMS or above recommended). BTW, I love my dancing dolphin HU. :D So, I'm keeping it. Haha. The animation is never on anyway. I keep dreaming of a 6.5" on my door panel. Adoi... This poison is backfiring on me. :P :P [/QUOTE]
