When I first read about the Dutch & Dutch 8C speaker system I was intrigued but didn't fully understand the approach they took. This thread has helped to better grasp the differences between different design philosophies and technologies. I'm curious now as to when we'll be seeing a system that is a bit more affordable but retains most of the advantages.I'm at the point in my life where I'm ready to sell off the rack of gear and move to an active speaker system with one turntable and a single digital source. A stereo that can be more easily integrated into our living room and get me out of the audiophile cave in the basement. It's been fun but I'm ready to see the light. :-)

we call it the "home theater" located in the family room. Wifey loves to watch her recorded programs from the DVR and stream from Netflix, PBS, Amazon, etc.
No TT, but can stream content from the music server.
It's interesting you bring up that point about simplifying your system. We saw the need for that a couple of years ago and started a site dedicated to such a pursuit -- we call it SoundStage! Simplifi. On it you'll find many reviews of active speakers, and some recent reviews where editor Gordon Brockhouse defines the terminology, which I think is helpful in this day and age.
