active speakers often sound better where both options are available and direct comparisons can be made.Exactly. Also, any passive spkr will reach a performance ceiling if only due to the existence of a filtering/equalising unit (xover) between source and spkr.
Really? alot of musicians don't know crap about good sound.Really? How on earth do you believe they got their diploma then? Mail order?
I think you meant, some musicians do not seem interested in the hobby of sound reproduction and, thereby, in matters of neutral / coloured / etc sound reproduction. Cheers
