Personally I have not gone fully active, but I love the idea of a clean simple system... Two speakers, a streamer, a power conditioner, 4 power cords and one or two interconnects..
Back in the day I used to install a lot of Genelec speakers which are very good neutral studio monitors but not what I would look at for a active system.. I heard Heavenly Soundworks at a couple shows and they are very impressive, incredible bass and soundstage from fairly compact speakers although I think they make some bigger stuff now...
Another amazing and really cool looking powered speakers brand is J Porter Studios out of Austin, those are pretty affordable and sounded wonderful, and looked really cool
A pair of either of those with a Aurender streamer and a DAC would be amazing
