>It appears that when it comes to amps you are of the view that there is little difference between most well constructed amps.

That is where you would be wrong. I'm using Hypex UcD based amps with my Orions. I do concede that a Theta Dreadnought II would likely sound better than an ATI amplifier. However, at what cost? The difference between the two amps would be IMO very subtle. OTOH, the cost difference is huge.

The typical argument is that is often made is that going to an active system involves compromising on amplification, and I believe this was your initial point. The fact of the matter is a set of Orions driven by an ATI amplifier will significantly outperform a $5,000 amplifier of your choice paired with a $2,000 set of speakers of your choice.
