would this paired with an Alpine iDA-X100(ipod deck) be a good match for processing if I wanted to run 2 or 3 way active? any thoughts from people who have or is currently running this eq.

Lots of wasted bands of equalization with that processor installed after the crossover. Consider that every band below a HPF and above a LPF is not doing anything and it should quickly become apparent that there isn't a lot of use for that processor in a high end system using active processing. It has its place, but not in a 3-way active system.

so what are some good processors out there that can handle the job? as far as alpine goes the only option i have with them is the Imprint(pxa-h100)

The imprint is a big joke. If you want an Alpine processor, get the H701.

don't think it's compatible with the ida-x100..i really want to get that hu

If you want to run active and are putting in a screen up front, you should really do the H701 but yes you will need the 205/505. Time to make the choice, a nice active install or that headunit. Sure you could still buy a H701 and a RUX to control it, but that seems rather stupid considering you don't have the screen yet.

the ida-x100 is the ipod hu not a screen, though it does have a screen on it. but i see what you mean

The H100 can do a 2-way + sub setup. I'm not sure how you can control it completely.
