Well, for one "high-end" active loudspeakers, you have ten passive loudspeakers ; way more research and money are going to passive loudspeakers because they are easier to use and to sale to the general public. I am convinced that, if the playing field was more fair, active speakers would be the best.
A glimpse at that were the Cabasse Galion IV (4 drivers, 4 ways): they were made in passive and active form, with the same drivers and the same enclosures. The active ones used an active, specific analog crossover, four specific power amps, and an electronic correction of the woofer to lower distortion (by output / input comparaison and correction of difference).
The active version sounded way better (believe me, it was not a subtil difference). Ok, the difference of price was huge too.
Cheers,Yves
