i second the "all of them".  its really hard--probably impossible--to
use the activ system without the amplifiers.  you would have to do some
sort of custom rewire to make sure each speaker got the proper lead and
a ground....and in that case, you might as well rewire everything.  it
really isnt that hard, and its a much cleaner and more thorough job. 
you only need to take the "roof" off of the drivers footwell to fish the
cables in there.  you can shove a stiffish wire down the dash speaker
holes (if youre using them) and have them go all the way to the floor. 
(so you can then pull the speaker wire up)  for the rear wires, you only
need to pull the door sills off to get under the carpet...and you can do
both speakers on one side if you want.  

it really isnt that hard, and its well worth it.
