Just wanted to throw the Linn Klimax speakers into the mix, which include built-in their excellent Klimax Chakra amps. (They use SMPS, but are not truly Class-D amps, I believe).
Do Active Speakers Belong In A High End System?
.
In a pair of active speakers, you have removed the high end amplifier from from the equation. The amps on an active speaker will probably be class D plate amps.
All of the flowery adjectives to describe high end amps and high end speaker cables in a system go right out the window when using active speakers.
Is a serious active full-range tower speaker a high-end audiophile possibility? I rarely read about active speakers on this forum in a two channel system.
