You don't have the benefits of the passive xover doing all the work for you...you have to manually set your points and slopes. Gives you more flexibilty in your settings.
Make sense?

But i do believe when I get my comps i will run them with a crossover. Is it at all possible to get a good pair of comps that i can crank up and still have good sound quality for around 100 bucks for the pair???

where did you get them from for that price? Also, how did you mount them in your truck? did you have to prefab a mounting plate to fit the woofer into the 5x7 spot? Also are they 5.25 or 6.5's? Did you have to do any cutting?
