Been running ampere audio amps, for some time. Used the DSP also. Still have the comp sets in the doors in my car. Fine gear. Lets see yours Old build in the blazer. 4 3800.s at .5 , 2 125.4's on the doors. Ampere 9k in my trunk build. Things huge. Current rig/set up. 6-3800's at .5, 2- 75.4's on the doors.

Checking out the Ampere Vibra Fled sheets...... Just got a few sheets (more than a few) on the floor board.

Or depending on your goals you could chose other drivers. But do not purchase a comp set just to run the drivers active. Especially when the drivers are just rebadged versions of raw drivers. What is your budget and what are your goals ?

The Black series are nice drivers. However, they are rebadged SB Acoustics drivers. Arc claims they are different, but the Klippel measurements show them to be basically identical performance wise. The mids are the SB Acoustics SB17 drivers and go for $63 each on Madisound. I'd have to research again which SB tweeter it is Arc uses in the comp set, but the mark-up is similar. The point is you can get the drivers from Madisound for 1/4 of the price of the comp set. It wouldn't have the passive crossover, but IMO in this case the passive isn't worth the $500 price difference. EDIT: Oh shit, missed you were planning on running active. Fuck the Arc comp set. Buy the same damn drivers from Madisound for 1/4 of the price. Literally the same damn speakers. Here is the mid Arc uses in the Black series: http://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/sb-acoustics-woofers-6-7/sb-acoustics-sb17nrxc35-4-6.5-woofer/ Do some searching and you'll also find the tweeter on there.
