What Active Speakers?

What’s better than having a music streamer that won’t let you get tangled in wires, offers no more confusing setups, or even eliminates the need to adjust your stereo amplifier? Active speakers are those plug-and-play audio solutions that work wonders.

These standalone speaker kits offer a powerful punch for simple, high-powered sound without any of the usual, tricky configurations. Active speakers come with a stereo amplifier built-in, so they do all the heavy lifting, transforming your room into a full-fledged theater system.

From setting up a home entertainment system to building an audio workstation, right down to audiophile-grade sound quality — active speakers provide a seamless and immersive listening journey.

And with Arylic Bluetooth speakers' wireless connection, you can even stream music from your phone or Alexa devices with ease. Isn’t that incredible? It's like having a personal concert in your living room, minus all the hassle.

What Are Active Speakers?

Active speakers are a type of audio system that has a built-in internal amplifier, and, as a result, no external amplifier is necessary to connect to an audio source like a phone or a computer through a music streamer.

Unlike the passive speaker which requires an external amplifier to work, active speakers do not require an additional amplifier unit, thus the boosted sound can be obtained when we directly connect a system or an audio source to it.

An amplifier is a necessity for an effective sound system, and having it in the same unit as the speaker brings a lot more efficiency. Less components mean that things are tidier too, and clutter-free space is achieved. Active speaker sound quality is stress-free; this means active speakers are plug-and-play audio components so that you have the greatest listening experience.

Active speakers, like Arylic, offer better dynamics and are much more powerful even in smaller models. Active crossovers in general are a lot more accurate as you can fine-tune the sound much closer than most other setups.

What Makes Active Speakers Different From Passive Speakers?

Most simply, active speakers don't have an added amplifier to play music whereas passive ones have them for superior, high-end customizable audio. Here’s a table and an image to illustrate everything.

 

Characteristic	Active Speakers	Passive Speakers
Amplification	Built-in amplifier	Requires an external amplifier
Sound Quality	Consistent, well-balanced sound	Depends on the external amplifier used

What Features to Look Out For In Active Speakers?

Here are some important things to consider when shopping for a pair of active speakers. Here's what to look for:

• Built-In Amplifiers:Amplifiers: This is the most crucial unit to have as it provides greater control over your drivers allowing you to experience clearer, more precise stereo imaging with lower distortion.

 

• Cross-Over:Inside crossover networks, the audio stream is broken down into frequency bands, and each band is directed to its respective speaker driver. An active crossover design such as this ensures each speaker receives the frequency range for which it is most suited, so you get better sound reproduction and less intermodulation distortion.

 

• Bi-Amping:On some active speakers, bi-amping is used to power each driver with its channel in the amplifier. Bi-amping will allow the drivers to be better controlled and thereby may lead to superior sound quality and speaker efficiency.

 

• Connectivity Options: Make sure your speaker can connect the way you want—whether that’s Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or even old-school RCA and XLR. The more options, the better! Luckily, Arylic active Bluetooth speakers enable wireless streaming from smartphones, Airplay, Alexa, and other Bluetooth-enabled devices.

 

• Sound Customization If not anything, the ability to tweak speakers’ sound—a bass boost here or a little more treble there—is always an added benefit. A few even have their own EQ settings, in case you need a finetuned experience.

 

• DSP (Digital Signal Processing):DSP will allow users to adjust the sound output from speakers according to their choice or the way their environment sounds. This will firstly allow you to fix the issues of room discomfort, secondly, it will increase the overall sound.
