What is the difference between active and passive speakers?
An active speaker has an inbuilt crossover and power-amp housed within it, whereas a passive speaker has needs and external amp to drive it.
Where should I position my subwoofers?
As low-bass frequencies are omni-directional, placing a subwoofer about anywhere near the top cabinets in a room would deliver good results. However, placement of a subwoofer close to a wall would result in more bass and placing it close to a corner may unnaturally boost the base and sound unnatural and inaccurate.
What happens if the amplifier rating is less than the power handling of the speaker?
The amplifier would have to work hard to keep up with the speaker when its power rating is less than that of the speaker. When this happens, the amplifier is more likely to clip, which eventually causes more damage than an over-rated amplifier.
What is power compression?
Made of copper and aluminum, speaker voice coils increase in temperature at the time of normal operation. When speakers are driven beyond their capacity, the voice coils heat up thereby increasing the DC resistance, which results into less power transfer from the amplifier. Eventually, the speaker loses power with a visible drop in the SPL.
