The characteristics and advantages of active sound systems

An active speaker is a type of speaker that integrates an amplifier and a speaker unit. Compared to passive speakers, active speakers contain independent amplifiers inside, which allows them to directly receive audio signals and amplify output sound without the need for additional external amplifier equipment.

The following are some main features and advantages of active speakers:

1.Integrated amplifier: The active speaker is equipped with an amplifier inside, which enables the speaker to amplify signals and simplifies the connection and configuration of the audio system.

2.Easy to install and use: Due to the integration of amplifiers, active speakers are usually simpler and more user-friendly, just connect the audio source to use.

3.Relatively small size: Due to the integration of amplifiers, active speakers are usually smaller in size and more suitable for use in limited space.

4. Avoid amplifier and speaker matching issues: As the amplifier and speaker units are pre matched and optimized by the manufacturer, active speakers can usually achieve better sound quality performance.

5. Flexibility: By combining the power amplifier of an active speaker with the speaker unit, manufacturers can better control and optimize the performance of the speaker, providing more flexible sound adjustment and adjustment options.

6. Wide applicability: Active speakers can be used for many different applications, such as home sound, studio monitoring, stage performances, and event sound.

7. Equipped with power supply: Due to the built-in amplifier of active speakers, they usually have their own power supply without the need for additional power amplifiers.
