Well I am British so those brands are not freely available, and my modest British house does not have room for floor standers let alone honking big floor standers.
The Sonus Faber Electa Amator IIs with their passive rear radiator coupled with the matching Gravis B1 subwoofer have plenty of tight bass to load my room and for me to feel the groove.

Indeed they can big big. The joke here in the US (please don't insert your own US joke here please) was not only could you listen to them but you could be buried in them too.
Since you live in London maybe you can answer this. A friend of mine told me that active speakers were big over there for years. And it was because of the small apartments. Was that ever true?
London is an amazing place and a real walking around city. I like to just walk around. I guess that's why I hike so much out here in the Sonoran desert.
On the scale of American cities London is probably small, and we do have a lot of culture in a relatively compact area in the central area.
As for active speakers, they have always been a niche market and haven't really taken off, despite their advantages, tweakers will be tweakers everywhere.
