Isn't the bulk of amp/driver "match" really about coordinating [the same] dynamic range of each section of a complete system? I mean an active system cannot be considered high end if it clips its HF amp on the tweeter before the LF amp clips on its LF driver. This is the most basic of requirements, yes? The same rules apply to a full multi way active PA system, yes?
There has been little talk of dynamics with active, but that is where one of the larger benefits occurs. The level of LF demand on an amplifier is often underestimated, yielding a negative result for a HF device on a single way [passive full range] system.
