Passive Loudspeaker FAQ

Passive Speakers – The Perfect Sound for Your Home

Passive speakers, also known as passive boxes, are an excellent choice for audio enthusiasts who value excellent sound and flexible application options. They are particularly versatile and can be integrated into various home audio systems. In this article, you will learn everything you need to know about passive speakers and their numerous advantages.

What Are Passive Speakers?

Definition and Functionality of Passive Speakers

Passive speakers require an external amplifier to produce sound. Unlike active speakers, which have a built-in amplifier, passive speakers are only responsible for sound reproduction. They feature a passive crossover that distributes the audio signals to the various speaker drivers.

Difference Between Passive and Active Speakers

The main difference between active and passive speakers lies in the need for an external amplifier. While active speakers have one built-in, passive speakers require a separate amplifier. This allows for greater flexibility and customization options in the music system.
