Only a lowpass at 2500hz where they handed off to the tweeters. For the most part there was absolutely no need for a subwoofer.
You should go to the big show at Parts Express next month. Look for it in the events section of this forum. I plan on being there and you'll get to hear what very little money in speakers can do as long as you make the right choices. Hell depending on which sub I go with for the new build I might have a total of $200 in speakers since the rears are stock and got the sub for free:D
