speakers with active bass

I'd be interested to know if there's anyone who sincerely believes that passive bass is better.  What would the argument be?  I would certainly prefer active bass in any 3-way.  

I ,too, have the GET T1 speakers.  I like them because you CAN optimize them for the specific  room you place them in.  Plus, with a powered speaker,  you don't need a super powerful main amp due to the speaker amp doing most, if not all, of the heavy lifting. A lot of "audiophiles" also maintain that the bass in a powered speaker seams better than the bass from a separate subwoofer.  I don't know that for sure.  After many passive speakers, I prefer the sonic performance of the powered speaker.   Have a good one.     

Ok best bass-is a active , no question , there are a clear explanation
why,  All convention passive loudspeakers ( does not matter from price) get  low pass crossover,  Main element is induction coil. The coil get DC resistance . This resistance is reduce bass control , . My question ,why the majority high end  company still avoid  powered bass

  

janewyman,

I’m interested in the getting the T1 speakers.  What setup are you using to drive them?

thanks

Because audiophiles generally hate the idea of amplifiers in the speakers that they cannot select themselves.
