Just a decent preamp will do your job.. Doesn't John East make something suitable?

I have an active bass with active pickups but I'm not convinced that the extra complication and cost is worth it for the pickups.

I agree - if you you want active "power" then all you need is an active pre-amp. This will give you the option of not only cutting frequencies but also to boost them. It will also act as a buffer between your pickups and the outside world - making the tone more consistent and less changeable with different input impedances.
