Yes this speaker is an active speaker. In my experience the build quality of the speaker is very good. The sound quality is also very good. This is to be understood in that these are not monitor speakers or made for high quality sound. I have used them for parties outside and inside. They put out loud sound but not any where near audiophile sound.

They sound great to me but I'm no audiophile. Mine are in the living room, and I enjoy them just fine. I like the fact that theres' no wires (except inside walls).

I'm really not sure...I've had my pair for some time now...I've had mine for some time now that I'm honestly not sure. but I am satisfied with them though..i'm glad you asked because I want to purchase another set...I'm confident though they will live up to your expectations... I believe though if you have a weak system they will appear louder than your other speakers, that's how strong they are AND I push mine.....

Yes, they are!They are passive (don´t need battery) and I'm pretty happy with them.

They will work fine, but they were built for traveling from gig to gig and are not cosmetically desirable for a living room. They are a great value with better than average sound.

They can go plenty loud and have excellent bass. The sound quality on a whole is excellent... I just had issues with them staying in while moving around a lot.

When I received the speakers the tweets were included. By the way the sound great. All I can recommend is to break them in for at least a week depending on your time listening to them. To do that listen to them with the volume down alittle basically don't bang them like you stole em. I noticed they sound better than they did when I first got them. Hope this helps and good luck. Also stock decks will hender the performance of the speakers

Sound quality is pretty good, you won't get the deep bass like other but still really good for the active person. I manage a warehouse so always moving I don't even notice them any more. As far as sturdy, well they are inexpensive for a reason. I had an ear bud pop off from my first pair the second day I wore them. Bought a second pair for my wife, earbud popped off while taking it out the package. But it pops back in and still going strong. Their decent inexpensive and can withstand a lot of activity. Showed them to a couple coworkers they have also ordered some too. Bottom line they are a good purchase.

I've had mine about a year. The sound quality is the best I've experienced from a computer. They are solidly built. The Woofer is heavy and when I crank up the volume the speakers all stay put. Bass vibration does not make them vibrate off the shelve I have them on. I like these speakers.

These are passive not active which means you will need some type of amplifier. Somthing like this will do: Pyle Home PCA3 150-Watt Stereo Mini Power AmplifierHowever, you best bet is to get some type of active speaker system like this:Logitech S220 2.1 Speaker System with SubwooferMichael

They're good speakers. They don't have any bass. For an in-wall/ceiling speaker, I live them. But I also have other speakers that fill out the sound spectrum.

Oh yeah... they will hold up and sound great !! As long as you. Have a quality amp sending distortion free signal. I crank 150 watts into them using a NAD power amp and the speakers sound very good..

I would say so. They are great speakers. I had a set for over 10 years, outside in FL, IL, then AZ. When one finally went, I replaced them with the same set. I have them in my yard now.

They are not powered speakers if that's what your asking. Pair them with a Lepai 2020 amp ($20) and you could hook it up.

I don't think I quite understand the question. Or questions maybe?? I like the speakers a lot! They have great sound with really good range, though I don't typically use them at a significantly high volume. I listen to a lot of music like Steely Dan who use as many different instruments as you can think of and they all sound great! As for the construction, they are solid and well made. Does that help??
