I'm yet to find a high output passive I like the sound of in lower tunings personally, but so much stuff has been released in the past 5 or so years I wouldn't be surprised if there are several good options now.
I'm considering a second scratch plate with EMG SAs based on this logic. Though not decided if I want to try a passive set of real singles instead. Noiseless passives haven't won me over on guitar or bass.

Standard Les Paul with whatever Gibson pickups it came with.
Flying V with JB
Ibanez Destroyer with Air Norton
I play proper / true doom in one band and slightly more 70s proto metal influenced doom rock in another.
I can split the coil on my 7 string - It's not as nice by itself, but the low B string cuts much better in single coil mode over a backing track. I'm toying with the idea of having the 7 down to drop A for fear factory type stuff, but not sure how the passive pickups will fair.
It will be nice go see what EMGs sound like in single coil mode on the PRS and tuned much lower. I'm getting the 81TW-X (with preamp) if anyone is interested.
We play self bias resistor and I have an easier time with it on the 52 gauge low C (6 string) but it does require a gentler approach as it's easier to push the pitch sharp if you dig in too much or apply too much pressure on the palm muting.
They are totally different in design to any kther pickup and i think they look great

Good to know you're doing FF like that - the 7 string in standard is really really nice as is
