The superiority of AXO's is undoubted - so why is'nt the market dominated by integrated amps with built in AXO's or make it easy to insert the AXO after the pre-amp section - the inertia effect aka 'we've always done it this way and we don't want to change'.
oh come on, it's got to do more than just inertia. I know nothing about how to built speakers, but for what I understand the inside speaker's design is a big factor on how it'll ultimately sound. putting an amp inside has to have some implications. also the built-in amp has to have some limitations; even though might be good enough, but can it be as good as a pair of monoblocks? just wondering...
Let me see, active monitors or a pair of Sonus Fabers, Harbeths or Spendors paired with a really good tube amp. Tough choice...!
lol! x2
