    I'm looking at getting some new speakers. Nothing fancy mind you. I've done a stack of research and got 2 recommendations. One passive setup and the other active.

    The costing for the 2 setups are more or less the same (approximately $160). Any ideas if Passive speaker + amp is going to sound way better than Active? For my laptop and vinyl player?

    I personally have played and own all types of setups and can tell you that I personally prefer going the passive route.
    At the end of the day this is going to come down to personal preference and budget. This is by no means to say that there are not some very good active setups available. Hope this helps.

    I seem to be getting this impression....I've decided when I got some spare £££ to get Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 speakers with SMSL SA-36A amp with an AT LP-60
