Here is my set up......so far

Head Unit - Pioneer Premier DEH-P690UB

Front Stage - Hybrid Audio CLarus 6.1

Sub - Image Dynamics Q12 (DVC)...just one

Question is which amp would work best....the SAX 125.2 (bridged) or the SAZ 1000D?

Also, I'm looking at going active setup. Will the built in crossovers in the SAX 100.4 work as an active setup?

Thanks

Yes the 100.4 can go active.

Not so sure you will gain anything over the Hybrid crossover by swtiching to the amplifiers. Personally I'd upgrade the headunit if active were your goal.

The HYbrids come with a passive xover. If I go active, I will have to use either an external xover (like the Arc IDX or Audio Control 6XS) or run off the head unit.

I thought about switching the HU for the 800PRS. The head unit I have is still in the box brand new. I like it because it has the adaptors for the ipod and USB.

Any thoughts on the amp question?

If you want to go active the 800prs and a 4 channel amplifier will make your system sound WAY better than just using the crossovers on the amplifier.

[How aboput using an external xover with the 4 channel?

It can be done but that is even more money. An all analog crossover won't be any better than the amps. You need the capability of EQ, T/A, and crossover to compete with the 800prs. When you add that the prs has both L&R eq it is really a no brainer.

Whcih amp would be best for the sub? The SAX 125.2 (bridged) or the SAZ 1000D?

I would recommend the SAZ-1000D to go with your DVC subwoofer.
