Gentlemen – can you explain the difference between active loudspeaker systems and passive ones? Yes – but nowhere near as well as Mr. Mark Wheeler can. You can re his definitive (well, in my opinion at least) explanations HERE and HERE
I use Analogue Audio amplification and CD player, the Maestro 200 integrated and Maestro 192 CD player. Amp choice has been heavily influenced by reviews of Sugden, Jungson and Icon Audio 845.

It had always had anti-bias set matching the down force figure, or slightly less, as seems to be standard practice. Upon examining the stylus tip under magnification I could see obvious wear and […]
PS Audio builds one of the world’s only high-performance AC regenerators to power audio equipment. Why do they have to be so big? Can’t you design smaller ones to individually power equipment? Watch Now

I’m an expat from New Zealand (proud home of Plinius, Perreaux, Image Loudspeakers and Theophany), working in Singapore. I’ve been here two years with my (self-admittedly) entry level gear boxed-up back home […]
