Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused


17 of 23 speakers in my studio and home theater systems are internally powered. My studio system is all Genelec and sounds very accurate. I know the best new concert and studio speakers are internally powered there are great technical reasons to design a speaker and an amp synergistically, this concept is much more important to sound quality than the vibration systems we often buy. How can an audiophile justify a vibration system of any sort with this in mind.

My main argument

You see what I mean? He doesn’t own them, posts nothing to support his claims like a link to some type of proof, doesn’t recommend anything else, just argues, best to ignore.

Grammy award winning sound engineers use the 708P that @thespeakerdude is arguing about (as usual) while on the road with Bruno Mars, do you think they are "familiar" with them?

“The 708P monitors never deceive me and always make my mix sound bigger,” said Rabold. “The low end is thick and punchy, the midrange is honest and intact, and the highs are not overly bright or deceptively sparkly. There’s no hype or coloration to them, and because of this, I know that what I’m hearing will translate to any environment.”

 

The antagonist websites and members have to attack something to promote themselves as being smarter than everyone. Shameless attacks and hollow as they have nothing else, no system,no speakers, and not much else,
