| Why are the Infinity IRS, Reference 1b, Beta ect speakers passive on the mids and highs? I am not familiar with the Triangle Celius, but the rest are awesome speakers. I also like the Magnepans alot. I am not sure which I would pick if I had to make a choice. | |

| Why are the Infinity IRS, Reference 1b, Beta ect speakers passive on the mids and highs? I am learning here. Timlub, it sounds like you have experience on the RS1B.

| Why are the Infinity IRS, Reference 1b, Beta ect speakers passive on the mids and highs? I don't think adding another amp would be too much in cost or space but it might be that the sound is actually better passive. Has anyone compared both ways all other factors being equal?Marc |
