Google, list of dsp speakers https://hometheaterreview.com/digital-speaker-dsp/ that meyer sound model looks like it can blow your hair back. |
seadogs1, I have been involved in audio for over 45 years, including several years as an audio dealer and distributor. I have never before heard of an unpowered speaker referred to as "active."
The industry, in general, regards an active speaker as a powered speaker. Where or how did you arrive at your definition of active? |
Active speakers frequently have amplifiers built in. It's just that they have active crossovers between the source and the amplifier. If you have a pair of two way speakers, you need 2 channels of amplification in each one for active, but only one for powered since the crossover is after the amplifier. Powered but not active isn't very common. They're usually fairly cheap computer speakers from what I've seen. |
