Active speakers are the best matching of amps and transducers. At a given budget any active speaker would out-perform a separate combo. Accepted in studios, but yet to fully be appreciated in homes, why ?

Just imagine: Sports channels. move channels, lifetsyle channels, now broadcast in 5.1. Indians have NEVER had acces to such content, since in our opinion, we totally missed the DVD revolution, due to horrible VCDs...what would the quality yet budget conscious music lover need to best experience 5.1 over the set top box?
