Well, passive crossover design for a Maggie is somewhat simpler than a conventional speaker because the impedances involved are resistive in nature. I wouldn't say a designer is "limited" by the impedance, but it certainly has to be incorporated into the design. For a line-level crossover you really don't have to consider it.Ultimately, the shape of the electrical slopes driving the transducers produces the final output. My point was that.....in the case of the 1.6.....the electrical slopes for the stock network are completely different than those produced by a generic active crossover with LR24 slopes. A comparison of active and passive in that case is really not valid. It's apples and oranges.
