"Generally speaking, most passives tend to reduce bass impact at anything less than full volume. This can be reduced by placing the passive control as close to the amp as possible- preferably inside it"
I find that my passive actually has MORE bass. My preamps act more as an impedance "leveler". That's what I'm "assuming" - and we all know what happens when we assume - you make an ASS out of U and ME! When I use a passive on my some of my amps the treble gets spiky and the bass is stronger than normal.
It's a kind of you gotta try it and see.
I always recommend a person to test out a passive first. If a radioshack is available you can cobble together a passive for $10. Or if you a dealer allows a 30 day free trial. But you have to try it with YOUR system. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't.
