Active Not powered stand mount loudspeaker recommendations


The ones I am looking at are: Kii3, Avantgarde zero 1 XD, and the Dutch & Dutch 8c. Any thoughts on these or could you suggest any others. Thanks!

Kii3 and Avantgarde zero to me were both surgical in their sound, impressive presentation of the fundamental of musical notes, but with no apparent decaying of the harmonic structure of those fundamental notes to their sound, impressive but not enjoyable to me.

@erik_squires a powered speaker that is not active is one that has built in amplification but the crossover is still between the amplifier and the drivers.  Active is when the crossover is before the amplification.
